Palazzo Aeronautica represented the first stage of the visit of General Jäämeri who first met with General Preziosa in a private meeting and then attended a presentation by the Air Force Staff on the main programs of interest.
Subsequently the delegation, accompanied by the general of the aerial team Maurizio Lodovisi and the general of brigade aerial Roberto Di Marco, went on a visit at the Base of Cameri (Novara) where they were received by the head of the Polifunctional Center Aerotattici Aircraft of Cameri (Ce .Po.VA) general inspector Lucio Bianchi.
