From Defense News635911379878022315-DSC-2629

Congratulations for this first F-35 Atlantic crossing. A complex and articulated mission, brilliantly accomplished.

In line with the almost a-century-long tradition of what once was the “Arma Azzurra” and then “Regia Aeronautica”.

It brings back t5k52fdo my memory another beautiful example of aeronautical bravery, the 1933 trans-Atlantic crossings by a squadron of 25 Savoia-Marchetti seaplanes from Orbetello to Chicago.
