About

The Finnish Air Force Museum in Jyväskylä, located in Tikkakoski near the airport, presents over a century of Finnish military aviation history. Its main exhibition showcases aircraft, engines and aircrew equipment used by the Finnish Air Force from the early 1900s to the present, including biplanes, wartime fighters and jet-era machines. Visitors can step inside several cockpits and explore temporary displays arranged throughout the hall. The museum also preserves and restores historic aircraft, maintaining original materials whenever possible. A flight simulator offers an immersive experience of flying iconic aircraft, while the museum shop and café add to the visit. With its combination of authentic aircraft, hands‑on elements and detailed collections, the museum offers an engaging look into Finland’s aviation heritage.
