This is one of the only three MC.205V preserved in Italy. It was initially hosted in Milan at the Science and Technolgy Museum, but was transferred in the Aermacchi plant in 1988. The Museum received, as a swap, the famous Veltro that was restored by Aermacchi in flying conditons in 1980, but had an accident in July 1983, and it could not fly any more. This MM92166 was part of a Series III batch of aircraft for the Egyptian Air Force, but never delivered.
