OT: Any aviation museum in Rome?

[YoYo]

Hello, small off topic but important question for me...

I will be in next weekend in Rome. Is there any aviation/army museum for visit to? Any advices?
Maybe someone was here or is from Italy?

thx!

The Italian Air Force Museum is not in Rome, but it is quite close (I guess you have to drive to get there - I've never been there)... Still, if it is your only weekend in Rome, well...probably should not be at the top of your list of things to see...

Ha ha depends.... A Centauro, Veltro and Folgore in one single museum would be a reason for me to visit Rome. But I guess my wife wouldn't agree

Cheers,

...well, you are right! What I was saying is that Rome is so full of astonishing things to see that even an hard-core aviation enthusiast can easily be "distracted".

I often go to Rome for my job...but never had the time to go to the Air Force Museum, and actually I was browsing through their collection after I posted the link above - and boy, it is a great collection indeed. I have to go there, sooner or later.
