Re: BF 109G-10 77022. New gen
To be precise in Tissano there was no runway. Which is mistakenly referred to with this name is that one, in concrete, of Risano, (that is another nearby village) and is located approximately 2.5 km north of the well known airfield of Lavariano.
Risano is a new airfield whose construction started in November 1943 and that was abandoned in July-August 1944. At that time, only the east-west part (still in use) was finished, while of the other runaway, oriented north-south, existed only the underpinning made of gravel, today not detectable. The still existing strip is now used by factory of ultralight aircraft and can be easily identified in Google Earth at coordinates 45 ° 58'7 .00 "N 13 ° 14'8 .00" E
