Hello Kalender1973 and Stig
had at last last night time to check Hyvönen’s book but lost my answer while posting it, so here the essence.
My earlier answer’s point 1 still stands
Point 2. Actually the book describes the last flights of those who died, went missing, became PoW or had to parachute out of their plane while flying in FAF. So also fatal training accidents are included. Also foreigners which fulfil above mentioned conditions are included, even those lost while ferrying a/c to Finland. But there are not those plane losses from which crew survived and got back to Finnish side. For ex. the loss of Brewster 239 BW-372, now at Pensacola, isn’t mentioned because the pilot walked to Finnish side. But engineer Sten Åke Hildinger is there, he died while testing a Gladiator of F.19 (Swedish volunteer sqn).

Stig, the publisher is Apali, URL http://www.apali.fi, and they seem to still sell the Hyvönen’s book, on page 3 under Kirjat.

Regrettably Jaakko Hyvönen, who managed to fly some combat sorties in Bf 109G near end of the war, passed away in June 2002.
