In full markings of the Reparto Volo della Seconda Regione Aerea (Second Aerial Region Flight Department) at Guidonia and in service there into the 1970s. The RR code stood for the Regione Roma. Restoration to this beautiful state took a full year.

In 1950, Macchi procured a construction license for the Fokker S.11. Meant as a basic trainer for the AMI, it was soon surpassed by higher performance aircraft. Most went on to aero clubs, this is the former I-AELY of Aeroclub Firenze. Type written as Ma.416 on the tail.

Fascinating piece of aerospace engineering powered by a motorjet, called thermojet by Campini. A piston engine drives a compressor in a ducted fan-setup (two stages displayed on a stand below the aircraft) and the airflow passes an afterburner, generating extra thrust. Flew as early as 1940 but fell short in performance. Sole surviving complete airframe of two built, the other fuselage is in Milan.

Identity could use confirmation. Plate on the back says the construction number is '6741'. This was never allocated but could be a mix-up of the most likely ID, MM6714. In the museum since 2005 and one of seven F-104S' (partly) preserved or stored as '9-51', of which six in Italy.

Impressive engine but I wish they had put it somewhere else. This aircraft was built as a CL-13 Sabre Mk.4 and served in the RAF, first as XB904, later as XB915. It was transferred to the USAF in Oct 1956 and redesignated to F-86E(M) before being shipped to Italy under MDAP. Flew coded as displayed with the 2°Stormo, 13°Gruppo Autonomo. The Stormo badge is on the tail.

The G-91T advanced jet trainer was based on the G-91R and gained both length and wingspan on the original. It maintained the single-seater's characteristics and kept an acceptable range. MM6344 actually flew as SA-44 with the Scuola Volo Basico Avanzato Aviogetti at Amendola.

The G.91Y was considerably superior to the earlier versions in almost every aspect. The most noticeable difference are the two J85 engines that replaced the single Bristol Orpheus but there were many more improvements. This one flew for many years with the 101°Gruppo CBR/8°Stormo, of which it displays the symbols on nose and tail respectively.

The rear fuselage and tail, showing the yellowed 41°Stormo emblem, the code applied (last operational one may have been AS-6) and how the original BuNo was adopted as Matricula Militare. The small tail strut and wheel that would prevent the empannage from hitting the deck for carrier-landing S-2s can also just be seen.

Close-up of the serial applied to the SM.79 of the museum that was actually the former L-112 of the Lebanese air force, and MM45508 before that. MM24327 was really a Piaggio P.108 heavy bomber of WW2. The model is of one of three SM.79s that gained fame early in 1938 with a Rome-Dakar-Rio de Janeiro flight.

Considered the best fighter-bomber of its day, the nuclear-capable F-84F was also quite daunting to student pilots: there were no two-seaters. Delivered in 1957 and based later at Gioia del Colle as displayed.
