Unfortunately the Italian Air Force lost there white billboard codes ages ago, would have been nice now. Log with many mistakes and missing numbers. Maybe more at home when looking on the computer. There were also numerous others spotters with big cameras, so feel free to fill in the gaps, please be welcome.
Also almost every base / installation was opened for the public. More from those later.
