Aviation Museum Society, Finnish Air Force Museum and Finnish Aviation Museum started the VL Myrsky II restoration project in March 2013. The restored MY-14 unveiling was planned to be in 2019. However, the amount of work has been larger than expected, and the COVID-19 pandemic has delayed the project. The MY-14 will probably be unveiled in 2021.

Brewster BW-372 and Hawker Hurricane Mk.1 HC-452 as representative examples of Finnish Air Force Museum conservational approach. Presenter, Harri Huopainen, is a conservator in FiAF Museum. Huopainen has been involved on conservation of Brewster as an apprentice and as a leader of project on Hurricane.

Both planes are good examples of established conservation methods of Finnish Air Force museum, where planes are preserved in as original condition as possible and drastic renovation methods are avoided if possible. That includes preserving of paintwork and covering fabrics etc., that would need to be replaced if the planes are to be restored to static condition representing new or operational plane or to flying condition. Brewster and Hurricane made this approach easy to apply as both planes were preserved in highly original condition and it was possible to concentrate mainly on preservation work.

Most notable differences between the projects are that the Brewster was shot down and damaged on an emergency landing and has been submerged for many decades on a bottom of a lake. Hurricane was on better condition when the project started, as it was put on storage after it was removed from operational service. On the other hand, most of its equipment was missing as most of the useful items were removed when the plane was grounded and certain items were also removed or broken when the plane was on storage. There was also some damage on airframe that the plane had suffered during the decades of storage and display.

The presenter will describe the milestone moments through the chronology of the project detailing the decision-making process and the general philosophy of the build. For example, what was considered too far gone, what could be kept, where other parts came from and what can be considered original.

The aircraft has been at the museum longer than the presenter has. So he will rely heavily on information from Gunnar Koch of the Bodø Luftfartshistoriske Forening and the volunteer group, who have conducted the majority of the work.

Esittäjä kertoo myös näkemyksiään siitä, mitä olisi pitänyt tehdä toisin, mitä sana "alkuperäinen" merkitsee eri ihmisille ja entisöinnin ja konservoinnin hyvät ja huonot puolet toisiinsa verrattuna.

Esittelijä kertoo työstä Michael Beetham -konservointikeskuksessa ja sen tiimin tekemistä konservointiprojekteista.

Puolan ilmailumuseo on yhteistyössä Sotamuseon ja Suomen Ilmavoimamuseon entisöinyt Caudron-Renault C.R.714 -konetta vuodesta 2015. CA-556 siirrettiin Puolan ilmailumuseoon Krakovaan, missä tutkimustyö ja monivaiheinen entisöintityö tehdään. Suomalaisista, puolalaisista ja ranskalaisista asiantuntijoista koostuva tiimi on auttanut koko prosessia tarjoten tarvittavaa dokumentaatiota ja neuvoja. Lentokone luetteloitiin, puhdistettiin ja entisöintiin (sisältäen ohjaamon ja mittaristot). Joitakin osia, kuten keulaosa moottoreineen ja potkureineen sekä aseistus, puuttui ja oli uudelleenrakennettava. Koneen entisöinti edellyttää 3D-tulostustekniikan käyttöä. Kyseessä on ensimmäinen näin kompleksinen projekti.
