Re: OPENDAY GRAZZANISE 28-3-2023 CENTO ANNI DELL' AERONAUTICA MILITARE

Re the two "Spillone" on the field, the "outer" one is (almost certainly) the MM6705 (note, not MM6701) 9-51, formerly displayed at Capodrise but now stored at Grazzanise. The one closer to the building was a lot more faded, still working on it!
Apparently the 9.90 is known (but not by me :x )

Heaven forbid the ramps will be full of innumerable European piston powered so called aerobatic teams. When I go to an airshow in Italy I want 1 Euro pizza and hundreds of Italian military aeroplanes (& a couple of Spillone). And what serious photographer shoots inside at an airshow :roll:
