About this Group
On 28/3 2023 it will be 100 years since the Regia Aeronautica was established as an independent force. Untill then it had been part of the army. When Italy decided to end the Kingdom and establish the Italian Republic it was renamed Aeronautica Militare on the 18/6 1946.
Depending on the number of groups established in the meantime, and not least the interest this group may create, it will end no later than 18/6 2026 when the Aeronautica Militare will be 80.
It is thought of as a WIP group, and anything connected to the force throughout these 100 years will be accepted.

Your mixture looks close to perfect, Allan @kalamazoo

Thanks my friends, Spiros and John, -------- the underside decals were also a bit short, a mix of 2 and X15 not a perfect match but it is green, some X2 on the intakes in place of decals. -
That is a real pity indeed, Allan @kalamazoo Unbelievable that they provided too short decals. Pretty sure you will get them fixed nicely.

Pity for the short decals, will look excellent after your touch ups, my friend @kalamazoo!
