Hi Darren
The 109 G-14 was used by the Finnish Airforce right up until 1954 when they were phased out. They not only operated G-14s but G-5s, G-6s and G-10s at this time as well.

Hi Darren
Here is a link to a Finnish WWII Airforce site I found while researching a project for the "Fighters Under the Midnight Sun" campaign coming up later this year. It has a very comprehensive list of the many different fighters Used by the Finnish Airforce before, during, and after WWII.
