The Me109 is from JG77 and we can discern the black "death riding a scythe with an umbrella" 4th staffel's insignia under the cockpit.

We did indeed buy a few of these Capronis. They were called "Klippfiskbombere" - or a loose translation "Bacalao-bombers" because they were purchased partly with shipments of dried cod. They were not operational as the Germans attacked.
Of note is that it appears the Caproni was pictured at some airshow looking at the planes in the background while something with the picture of the wrecked planes says "Sola/Stavanger" though it is just a hunch and could very well be wrong.

Kyrre and especially Italian readers

Sorry for straying, but being very much in favour of the Italian Cuisine, may I ask what Italy did with all the dried fish? The dish made out of that (at least in Sweden) has been tried on friends from abroad, and their general feeling of disgust was quite passionate

Not 100% sure how our Norwegian brothers cook their dried fish, but I have never come across any Italian dishes made out of dried Cod!!!

Any takers?? I am really curious

Cheers
Stig (Great lover of the Swedish dish made from dried fish!!!!!!)
