Originally delivered to the SVBIA (basic jet trainer school) at Lecce in 1962. In 1975, during overhaul by Aermacchi, it was converted into an MB.326E armed version, of which only 12 were delivered to the AMI. It continued to serve as a trainer as Lecce until supplanted by the MB.339, being re-assigned as a squadron liaison aircraft with 9º Stormo and then moving to 6º Stormo at Ghedi. After withdrawal from service in 1989, it was parked at San Possidonio airfield near Modena for nearly 20 years before restoration to flight, now operated by the Legend team from Reggio Emilia.

Registered in 2004 after restoration to flight between 1999 and 2003 which followed recovery from a theme park at Recanati. Originally built in 1944 as AT-6D for the USAAF, in 1951 it was converted to T-6G with a new c/n and soon found its way to the AMI under the MDAP programme. It is now painted to represent a T-6C as operated by 604º Gruppo/4º Stormo at Grosseto.

This P-51 was assigned to the 318th Fighter Squadron in 1944, part of the 'Checkertail Clan' of the 325th Fighter Group, hence the colours in which it now flies. It is no stranger to Italy, having been based at Lesina on Italy's southern Adriatic coast. The unit flew escort missions for bombers attacking Romanian, German, Austrian, Czechoslovak and Hungarian oil and synthetic fuel processing facilities. Operated with the MN ANG post-war and then registered N7710C and CF-FUZ. Now German-based.

This Starfighter is actually MM6750 with the nose from aircraft MM6824. It is unknown why they made the error of applying the wrong MM on the tail. Aircraft is used as dynamic display aircraft and normally found at Istrana Air Base. On the picture the tail wing is about to be mounted.
