On September 5 and 6, 2015, the Italian aerobatic squadron "Frecce Tricolori" celebrated its 55th anniversary at its home base in Rivolto near Udine. Congratulators included air forces from Europe and the Middle East.
On the Friday before the actual event, spotters and aviation enthusiasts were given the opportunity to experience first-hand the final preparations for this major event. After prior registration, the training flights and the arrival of participating aircraft could be observed from various points on the airbase. Between these "spotter zones" there was a shuttle bus service that allowed the 400 or so participants to change locations quickly. At this point a big praise to the Italian Air Force for this well organized and free (!) Spotterday.
