The Finnish Aviation Museum's August Children's Sunday is held in Swedish. In the Pyttelilla Pilotens Lärokurs guided session, children explore the basics of flying and how different aircraft types in the museum exhibition stay in the air. After the guided session, participants can stay to learn about flight radio technology using a software-defined radio, and paper-airplane making is also available during the day.
