Giuseppe Versolato - Official Web Site

Born in Vicenza October 29-1941, he studied accounting at the Vicenza “Istituto Tecnico Commerciale” (I.T.C.); he worked for several years as a manager in public service. He is fond of static aeronautical modeling and aviation history, mainly related to W.W.II, with a specific interest in the Vicenza area wartime events.
He is secretary of the Vicenza “Frecce Tricolori" club and also adviser to
The National Historic Aircraft Association (G.A.V.S.) whose Vicenza section is under his care. He spends a great part of his time as a volunteer and curator at an aviation-history museum located in the Vicenza military airport. The exhibition is mainly dedicated to the flight history in the Vicenza territory. It is here that he collects and stores various museum pieces, including some aircraft formerly operated by the Italian Air Force.
In retirement, he devotes all his free time to his passion, doing
historic research that eventually led to the publishing of books,
newspaper, and magazine articles. Though he profoundly loves aviation and aircraft in general, he nevertheless is proud to have served the Italian Army as an "Alpino" in the 7th. Regiment of the Alpina "Cadore" Brigade (now withdrawn), as most of Vicentian boys do. He is also the very proud grandfather of 5 marvelous grandchildren, whom he adores, and he hopes that at least one of them will take over his favorite hobby, aviation, in the future. They already show their interest by making drawings and airplane models... all for granddad!
