Finally the first post-pandemic edition of the Italian Historical Aircraft Group (HAG) yearly fly-in, held in 25th and 26th June in Bagnoli di Sopra airfield near Padua, home of HAG itself.

The show was opened with a Viet Nam War memorial by Andrea Rossetto flying his Bird Dog "Mekong Mauler".

Probably the most unusual visitor was a new entry in the HAG fleet, a Soko G-2A Galeb jet trainer. This is the first jet to ever land in this grass airfield!

Finally I managed to take a photo of an F14!
Ok, it is not the naval fighter made famous by an '80s blockbuster, but a rare Aviamilano F14 Nibbio, designed by Stelio Frati . Only 10 were built, and only 2 (including this one) are still airworthy.
