It became 46-89 with Aeritalia at Napoli in 1986 and was moved to the Italian Experimental Flight Regiment (Reparto Sperimentale di Volo) as RS-34 in late 1986. Swapped code to RS-46 in early 1989 (as pictured). Sadly, the G222 crashed as such on 22 August 1991. It crashed near San Maria Infante (Latina, Italy) folowing a propable left-engine fire. The four crew did not survive.

The first production C-27J was shown at the IAT 2000. The aircraft (test serial CSX62216) was sold to Lithuanian Air Force as 06.

This is the first G222 in the pre-series, it was rolled out at Torino-Caselle on 21 Nov'75. It made its first flight on 23 Dec'75. The aircraft was used for all kinds of trails, included as G222-SAMA (waterbomber) and ATR42 icing tests, but also as a sales demonstration aircraft. After delivery to the Aeronautica Militare it was assigned to the Experimental Flight Regiment (Reparto Sperimentale di Volo) from 1988 onwards. Initially carried code RS-36, but this was changed to RS-45 from Jul'89. Withdrawn from service on 7 Jul'99. Stored at Pratica di Mare, last noted there in May 2007. Status?
