Any good books that you can recommend on this subject?

Don't know why I'm into building Finnish aircrafts. But need some reference as I plan to expand my collection. Have one Buffalo built so far, on Messerschmitt half finished. And are going to build one Gladiator, a Hurricane, one more Messerschmitt. Also have a conversion set for Tamiyas 1/48 Buffalo...

The best references that you can get on the topic are "Finnish Air Force Histoy" series being published by Keskinen and Stenman (Google on those names). They have volumes that deal typically with a single aircraft type (sometimes two), showing color profiles and wartime photos. There is an additional volume (I don't know if it's been reprinted yet) that deals with aircraft from 1918-1930s. Their coverage deals with WW2 AC.
