Summary edit

Description
Deutsch: Eine Fiat G.91 R/3 (LW-Spitzname "Gina") in der Nähe der GCA Maintenance Baracke auf dem Flugplatz Fürstenfeldbruck ("Fursty") - eine G.91 R/3 (DH + 120) des JaboG 42 (Jagdbombergeschwader 42) Pferdsfeld, Rheinland-Pfalz. Die Fiat G.91 R/3 lief dem Verband ab April 1966 zu, zuvor wurde die Canadair CL-13B Sabre 6 geflogen. Im Mai 1967 erfolgte die Umgliederung in die Jagdbomberrolle, sowie die Umbenennung in Leichtes Kampfgeschwader 42 (LeKG 42), das Kennzeichen o.g. G.91 änderte sich auf MB + 120. 8 Jahre später, im April 1975 ging das LeKG 42 im Jagdbombergeschwader 35 auf, wobei die McDonnell F-4F Phantom II geflogen wurde. Im "V-Fall" (Verteidigungsfall) wäre der Luftwaffenverband auf die vorgeschobenen Flugplätze Kitzingen und Giebelstadt südöstlich, bzw. südlich von Würzburg in Nord-Bayern verlegt worden. Trainings- und Orientierungsflüge mit Fiat G.91 während der 1960er und frühen 1970er Jahre wurden für Giebelstadt von Augenzeugen berichtet, eigene Beobachtungen (des Users W-R-H) gehen bereits auf das Jahr 1965 zurück.
English: A Fiat G.91 R/3 (LW nickname "Gina") near the GCA maintenance barracks at Fürstenfeldbruck airfield ("Fursty") - a G.91 R/3 (DH + 120) of JaboG 42 (Jagdbombergeschwader 42) Pferdsfeld, Rhineland-Palatinate. The Fiat G.91 R/3 joined the unit in April 1966, having previously flown the Canadair CL-13B Sabre 6. In May 1967, it was reorganised into the fighter-bomber role and renamed Leichtes Kampfgeschwader 42 (LeKG 42), the registration number of the G.91 changed to MB + 120. 8 years later, in April 1975, LeKG 42 was absorbed into JaboG 35 (Jagdbombergeschwader 35), with the McDonnell F-4F Phantom II being flown. In the "V-Fall" (defence case), the air force unit would have been relocated to the forward airfields of Kitzingen and Giebelstadt to the south-east and south of Würzburg in northern Bavaria. Training and orientation flights with Fiat G.91s during the 1960s and early 1970s were reported for Giebelstadt by eyewitnesses, while the user W-R-H's own observations date back to 1965.
