    Near-miss, Aircraft Incident at Lappeenranta TMA, Finland on 29 July 1999 Micro-summary: A near-miss between a Saab 340 and a glider. Event Date: 1999-07-29 at 1600 local Investigative Body: Finland Accident Investigation Board (AIB), Finland Investigative Body's Web Site: http://www.onnettomuustutkinta.fi/ Cautions: 1. Accident reports can be and sometimes are revised. Be sure to consult the investigative agency for the latest version before basing anything significant on content (e.g., thesis, research, etc). 2. Readers are advised that each report is a glimpse of events at specific points in time. While broad themes permeate the causal events leading up to crashes, and we can learn from those, the specific regulatory and technological environments can and do change. Your company's flight operations manual is the final authority as to the safe operation of your aircraft! 3. Reports may or may not represent reality. Many many non-scientific factors go into an investigation, including the magnitude of the event, the experience of the investigator, the political climate, relationship with the regulatory authority, technological and recovery capabilities, etc. It is recommended that the reader review all reports analytically. Even a "bad" report can be a very useful launching point for learning. 4. Contact us before reproducing or redistributing a report from this anthology. Individual countries have very differing views on copyright! We can advise you on the steps to follow.

Box 503 FIN–00101 HELSINKI Date Finland 2005 Authors Name of project Ari Venäläinen, Heikki Tuomenvirta, Pentti Pirinen, Achim Drebs Commissioned by Title A BASIC FINNISH CLIMATE DATA SET 1961-2000 - DESCRIPTION AND ILLUSTRATIONS Abstract Research related to the impact of and adaptation to climate change requires a comprehensive set of climate data. Both scenarios of future climate as well as records of past climate are needed. As a part of the FINADAPT research project, the Finnish Meteorological Institute has produced a set of climate data for the requirements of various research groups. The data set consists of daily mean temperature and daily precipitation data interpolated onto a 10*10 km grid. Interpolation scheme works well with daily temperatures. However spatial variation of daily precipitation is smoothed. This leads to about 17% systematic underestimation in the long-term annual average. In addition to these interpolated data, measurements obtained from five observing stations were also included in the data set. The station data consist of daily precipitation, mean, maximum and minimum temperatures, air humidity, wind speed, snow depth, global radiation, sunshine hours and potential evaporation, as well as growing season temperature and precipitation sum information.

    ATHLETE GUIDE ATHLETE GUIDE 1 WELCOME To 2021 IRONMAN Finland MAYOR OF KUOPIO Welcome to Kuopio – the capital of good living! I am delighted to welcome all competitors and participants in the IRONMAN 2021 event to Kuopio and Tahko. The setting and scenery in Tahko provide the race with a unique element and make it an unforgettable experience. The competition has already broken records in being the world's northernmost and the first full-distance IRONMAN to be held in Finland. We are excitedly anticipating new records set by you, the competitors. IRONMAN is a challenging race, and the hilly local terrain presents its own challenges, too. So the cycling route has ascents and descents with lake views in a rural setting. Tahko also has a well-known set of steps – with 1,054 it is the longest in Finland! Tahko is part of Kuopio and Kuopio is the 8th biggest city in Finland, with more than 120,000 inhabitants. Kuopio is a major centre of sport and culture. In ball games, our teams play in the top leagues, several urban festivals take place on the shores of Lake Kallavesi, and our citizens can enjoy a wide range of sports facilities. Kuopio residents are indeed statistically very satisfied with the recreational opportunities and residential environment in their home town. So, in addition to Tahko, it's worth getting a taste of other experiences and sights in Kuopio. I wish all competitors and support teams a rewarding race! Jarmo Pirhonen Mayor of Kuopio ATHLETE GUIDE IRONMAN FINLAND 2021 2 WELCOME To 2021 IRONMAN Finland RACE DIRECTOR Dear athletes, I’m happy to welcome you to the It has also been clear since the Northmost IRONMAN race.
