28 March 2023 – The Open Days of the Italian Air Force

DOVE, WHEN AND WHAT TO SEE THE 28 MARCH

The 28 March the Air Force celebrates 100 years since its foundation, occurred on 28 March 1923, date on which the Regia Aeronautica was established as an autonomous armed force.
To worthily celebrate this important anniversary, the Armed Forces has organized several events that AviaSpotter already talks about in a special article that you can find which.

One of the key events will undoubtedly be the overflight of the capital by the Frecce Tricolori and some aircraft, which will take place on the very date of the foundation.
At the same time, all Bases will be open to the public, Departments and Organizations to allow everyone to see aircraft up close, means and what the men in blue do every day. In some cases there will be demonstrations in flight.

They've been seeing each other since early February, especially on social networks, posters advertising times and programs of events.
The Air Force itself, the day 17 March, has published a list of all the appointments which I reproduce below.
At the bottom you will also find collected all the posters that we managed to recover around.
