Party in the sky of Milan (colour litho)

Party in the sky of Milan. On July 6, on the 39th anniversary of the death of Francesco Baracca, an aviation ace during the First World War, the Italian Air Force organized a major air event to which they participated, with spectacular performances, aerobatic patrols from seven countries (Italy, the United States, France, England, Spain, Greece and Turkey). Here is, in this drawing by Walter Molino, a tricolor smoke traced in the blue by the Italian riders who, in the most difficult exercises, have shown great skill.
