>The downing of the civilian plane, named Kaleva, en route from Tallinn to Helsinki happened on June 14, 1940 — just three months after Finland had signed a peace treaty with Moscow
How very russian of them.
Russia (at the time, Soviet Union) knowingly got away with perfect crime as it is obvious plane was unarmed civilian.
hidden gem?
the more things change, etc
Are they going to be ok?
Something not mentioned in this article, but reported in Estonian media, is that the entire fuselage is missing. One of the divers who helped to locate the wreck believes that at some point, either shortly after WW2 or sometime in the 50s, the soviets returned to the site and removed that part of the aircraft.
