Spotter's notes
Exposed at Volandia Museum. The aircraft is one of the twins employed by the 31st Squadron of the Italian Air Force and was used for diplomatic flights and for emergency transport. Among the multitude of VIPs that flew on this airplane, I must mention the President of the Italian Republic Sandro Pertini and the Saint Pope John Paul II. Delivered around 1974 and retired in 2001 (then stored in Rome Fiumicino), it was donated to Volandia museum in 2016.
