Description of the attraction
The Aviation Park, established in 1995 in Rimini, invites visitors to experience the richest collection of aircraft that have played a critical role in some of the most significant events in history since the end of World War II. Shown here are over forty aircraft that were involved in a variety of military conflicts in the second half of the 20th century: the Korean and Vietnam Wars, the Gulf War (between Iraq and Iran), conflicts in Bosnia and on the border between India and Pakistan. Dumb witnesses of terrible events in the history of mankind, today they peacefully lie on green lawns and are open for careful research and inspection. The stream of aviation history buffs continues.
The total length of the exhibition route reaches 2 km. On this path, you can, for example, sit on an airplane that once belonged to the great American actor Clark Gable and which was flown by the equally famous Marilyn Monroe, John and Ted Kennedy, Frank Sinatra and Ronald Reagan. A MiG-23 similar to the Libyan plane that crashed on the Italian mountain plateau Sila in Calabria is also on display. Other aircraft include the legendary American Phantom fighter, the Lockheed F-104, which develops incredible speed and is still in service with the Italian Air Force, the plane of the Italian aerobatom squadron "Frecce Tricolore" and other military aircraft that were in the service of the air forces of all countries of the world. … The park also has a memorial to the victims of the 1988 Ramstein plane crash.
