Rivolto is good if you like W&R, there are a lot off them on this base!

Bolzano, you can check out the Carabinieri choppers, Army is also based there but last year I didn't saw any of those choppers outside.
Ghedi can if you stay some distance from the fence.
W&R around Verona area a lot...

R88 missed some panels, so WFU.
