Photo Comment

Since no original G.55 survived WW2, this example was reconstructed from the wreck of G.59 MM53265. In full markings of the squadron named after Capitano Giovanni Bonet, whose signature on the nose was the squadron logo. The serial of the original airframe has not been applied to the exterior of this final versiion.
