Photo Comment

Although some 754 G.91s were built, none remained airworthy after the type's retirement in 1992. MM6305 began a programme of restoration by Renzo Catellani's Volafenice team and the Italian Air Force at Piacenza in 2021 and was flown again under registration I-AMIC for the first time just two days before this appearance at the Italian Air Force 100th anniversary celebrations. Although painted as a G.91PAN of the Frecce Tricolori, its service life had been with 2º Stormo in the regular NATO camouflage. Undoubtedly one of the stars of the show along with the F-104.
