I've got a couple more scenarios to write up for the Bag the Hun Continuation War project, so wanted to include an escort mission somewhere. This action on 7th November 1942 looks very promising, if a little one sided, but I can easily balance it out to avoid a walkover for the Finns, which is what actually happened:
"Capt Nurminen’s 3/LeLv 32 escorted a Fokker C.X over the front. A MiG-3 schwarm from 415 IAP tried to down the elderly biplane, but all four Soviet aircraft fell victim to the Fokker’s fighter escort instead. SSgt Aimo Gerdt (in CU-503) became on ace following his successes during this mission"
