I was born in Padua on September 10, 1975 and since then I have had an innate passion for airplanes.  I graduated from the Aeronautical Institute in Forli, enlisted in the army in the paratroopers brigade "FOLGORE," and then went into the air force as an officer.

In 1997 I qualified as an approach tower controller and I served for about two years at 51° Wing in Istrana.  At the end of 1999, I transferred to the Padova Area Control Center where I work as Radar Air Traffic Controller and On Job Training Instructor.

Since I was a child I have had a passion for the history, that led me to appreciate historic bicycles and airplanes.   In my spare time, I towed gliders with the Stinson L5 and The Cessna O-1.

In 2009 I finished the restoration of my Aermacchi MB308 I-NCOM with which I was earned by F.A.I with the Diploma Phoenix.

In 2013 I went with the same plane to the Paris Air Show at Le Bourget, guest to the Finmeccanica static park.

I live in Torreglia (PD), am married and the father of the beautiful Anna, I'm the HAG's President since october 2011
