There is only one aeroplane here in the Alfa Romeo museum, but what a stunner. It is painted as I-ASSI (c/n 04) which made a South American tour for the benefit of handicapped Italian kids in 1949, named Angel of the Children in Spanish and Italian. On the tailfin is a quote from Saint Francis of Assisi. This photo is copyright © Peter de Jong, and may not be used or published in any way without permission.
