It’s About the Journey Not Just the Destination

Well That’s it for us. Have had enough abuse from Social Media (particularly Reddit). Site will run until current subscription expires. Had just hoped to share pictures and our travels with people . Was also a great help with my mental health, but just can’t take the shit anymore. Enjoy the existing pages while they last.

Reggiane Re.2005 Sagittario

Reggiane Re.2005 Sagittario

First flying in May 1942, with production examples entering service in May 1943, the Regianne Re.2005 was a single-seat Italian fighter. Powered by the Daimler-Benz DB 605 engine, it suffered from a rear fuselage weakness which limited its true airspeed to 410mph to avoid flutter and potential failure of the structure.

Only 48 were delivered before the armistice, most of which were destroyed in combat or in bombing raids. Six were used by the Aeronautica Nazionale Repubblicana (ANR) the air force of the German allied Italian Social Republic. Another thirteen were used by the Luftwaffe.
