04 28 1945 Lonate Pozzolo
Seen today on Italian tv (on raiStoria channel) a documentary where a partisan commander from the "Valsesia" garibaldini division says that his troops occupied Lonate Pozzolo (close to Milan) airfield on April 28, 1945. There they found an airplane in flying conditions and painted underneath it the name "Valsesia", before flying it over Milan in order to drop leaflets on the town.I have never seen images of this aircraft and had never heard this story before. Does anybody out there know if it was a German or an ANR plane? Who was its pilot? Is there a photograph of it in the new partisan livery?Many thanks,Andrea
