Very impressive heavy bomber and transport aircraft with a maximum take-off mass of more than 18 tonnes. A slow but capable beast, the Luftwaffe operated hundreds of them and the Italian air force even kept some in operation until the early 1960s. Carries its original serial again since having been restored here.

Only the left tiptank's "Ultimo Volo 17.5.03" now mentions the last flight of the type with the Italian Air Force, its only user. This version was an Electronic Warfare platform.

The colours are fading on MM61961. As a 'Guerra Elettronica' (electronic warfare) machine it was initially painted in the dark green and grey scheme. Route navigation charts have been applied as sunscreens for the cockpit. Still, a handsome bizjet designed by the Piaggio and Douglas aircraft companies.

Despite 'operational Beetle', Ristoaereo was out of business by springtime 2019. No more dining while admiring the rest of the sole surviving AMI CV-440. She left the factory in 1957 as N8464H, was transferred to the Italian air force as I-MIDA and taken on strength as MM61833. Was a VIP and presidential aircraft, served the military until 1978 and after storage was preserved in excellent condition at the current location around 1990. The restaurant was built later. In complete livery, markings and code but condition slowly deteriorates. Find her in Isola Sacra at Via Trincea delle Frasche 90.
