Post by Austria »

Hi all,

A question and I hope I´m in the right place.

In the summer my girlfriend and I want to go to Rimini Italy.
I found that there is an aviationmuseum. Is it anything good.
Taking pictures, to find, etc.

Hope you can give me any information?

Thanks in advance, Austria.

The Aviation Park, inaugurated on 2 April 1995, offers visitors a rare collection of aircraft that have played an important role in some of the most significant moments of the post-war period. These planes, of which over forty are on display, were the protagonists of several wars (Korea, India-Pakistan, Vietnam, Iran-Iraq, Gulf, Bosnia) and other episodes over the last 50 years.
The exhibition itinerary covers a total distance of over 2 km, and highlights include the possibility of boarding the plane once owned by Clark Gable, on which celebrities and important public figures like Marilyn Monroe, John and Ted Kennedy, Frank Sinatra and Ronald Reagan flew in the past. On display there is also a MiG-23 similar to the Libyan aircraft that crashed in Italy’s Sila Mountains at the same time as the Ustica air disaster. Other planes include an aircraft of the Italian Frecce Tricolore aerobatics squadron, and other planes that have served in air forces all over the world.

The Aviation Museum is situated inside the theme park. The exhibits on display are unique and cannot be found in any other museum in Italy or overseas.
