Operated by the Frecce between 1969 and 1981, MM6249 was withdrawn from use after a mid-air collision with team aircraft MM566 (G.91 c/n 002) at Rivolto on 2nd September 1981, the pilot being able to land the aircraft safely although it was damaged beyond repair. It was preserved at the Museo dell'Aviazione, Cerbaiolo, but in 2024 it was restored by 1° Club Frecce Tricolori at Pieve di Soligo, Treviso and placed on display in that town on a plinth.
