VL Sääski II was the first series produced aircraft that had been designed in Finland. The aircraft was built by the State Aircraft Factory (Valtion lentokonetehdas) (abbrevated either V.L. or VL) and was a two-seat biplane single-engined trainer constructed out of wood. The aircraft was designed by Kurt Berger and Asser Järvinen in 1927 and the prototype was financed by own means by a ten person construction team in the A.E. Nyman workshop.

ovat esimerkiksi Jarkko Hyttisen VL Sääski ja J Pokin Konduktöörivaunu F. Toisaalta taas vaikkapa tällaisilla tai tällaisilla laitteilla ei ole mielestäni mitään tekemistä pienoismallien kanssa.1
