Re: 04 28 1945 Lonate Pozzolo

Anything is possible in those confusing and confused days...

Anyway, from time to time there are rumours of isolated "captured" planes allegedly flown by the partisans in the few days - if not hours - where the confusion allowed such things to be done (and before the Allied troops and Commands settled in the North).

Unfortunately, not a single documentary proof of those rumours has been shown so far, so we are left to believe or not to those accounts only by trusting more or less the sources.

However, considering that photographs of the dozens of abandoned ANR aircraft on Northern Italy's airfields have yet to surface, it is of no surprise that most of those facts are still sorrounded by a thick haze.

Hope it helps
