Smartly attired in Italian AF livery in the historic park at Pratica, this P.166 is familiar from its appearances in a civilian livery using Italian flag colours at UK airshows. It was built in 1962 as the prototype P.166B Portofino registered I-PIAS, then converted by Piaggio as a P.166C feederliner demonstrator. Sold to Transavio for services Milan-Linate and Pisa to Elba, last flown in 1985 and stored at Milan-Bresso for 18 years. By 2002 it was in very poor condition and was bought for €50 for restoration, carried out at Rome's Guidonia AB over 17,500 hours, flying again in November 2011.

It was assigned to the 653 Squadriglia Collegamenti (Liason unit) of the 53° Stormo before being withdrawn from use in the mid 80s. It was then replaced in the static display of preserved aircraft by another P-166M of the same unit: MM 61927 coded 53-34.

Registered as I-PIAE in 1978. To the Guardia di Finanza as MM25172 in 1990. To Rome-Elio Bentivoglio surplus yard by 2020. Still there in 2023.
