Today under a very very hot sun (37°) and incredible blue sky, the Black Panters of 50th Stormo were transferred to the 6th Stormo "Red Devils" in Ghedi and the Wing with his Tornado ECR 'has been canceled

Ciao Claudio. Very nice photo-set, as always . I was planning to visit Piacenza in January but will there be any Tornado's operating from the airfield by then? Grazie Mille. Peter

Hello Peter you welcome. Tnks for your words. If you have planning the visit in Piacenza his Tornado are now all in Ghedi with the 6°Stormo and the base have not planes and now is open for a possible redeployment and there is now only the Piacenza Airport Headquarter for minor activities' without aircraft.

Ciao Claudio (again!). Just realised that Ghedi is even closer to my in-laws in Valdagno so the car rental is on again! I will be in Italy first week of January; do you think the unit at Ghedi will be flying then or it is unpredictable? Grazie, Peter

Hi dear Friend.Valdagno nice place !!!! Ghedi I think that's not a problem behind a permission of the military authorities and that the 155th place already 'his mission as Piacenza. The problem is the meteo.Ghedi is located in a basin and its climate is quite problematic and in January may be problems; but it is said and 'can also have a bright sun .Only luck. that surely...you will!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Ciao Claudio
