Annual Airshow at the Agusta factory in Vergiate.....PA announces the Italian Team.....no Team seen or heard.....me thinking typical Italians...never on time as usual.....when from behind the crowd which was in front of the factory buildings on the apron facing the runway......arrive the Team trailing smoke just barely clearing the roof of the buildings!

You did not hear them until they passed directly overhead at not very high above you.....terrific effect on the crowd!!!!

Multi-colored smoke curled down on the crowd and the team raced off into their performance where was absolutely professionally done with real elan!

That was followed up by a fellow in a Glider doing aerobatics to music.....which also was very well done.
