Introducing COAVIO

Welcome! My nickname is I-GINO, and  I am an aviation enthusiast living in Rome, Italy. The purpose of this site is to share the view of my best shooted aviation images with  people who love aviation world as me. Here you can find my photo reportage of the 2000 Farnborough Air Show in UK, and some other photos I took during 1998 Pratica di Mare Air Show in Italy. In addition you can find a 55 seconds video clip of the  Suckoi 37, the Russian thrust vector control fighter demonstrator I filmed during its flight exibithion at  Le Bourget 1997 Air Show. Photos at Farnborough were taken  with a Nikon Coolpix 950 digital camera  at a resolution of 1600x1200 pixels, then resampled at a 800x600 pixels (average) for web purposes. Pratica's photos were taken with a Casio QV100 digital camera at 640x480 pixels resolution.
Video clip was filmed with a Sony 8mm video-camera, then digitalized.
For every section (civil and military, static and flight exibithions) a simple dual-frame interface allows to browse images thumbnails, and view the selected image at full  resolution.

 

The image above is  my grandfather aviator's eagle, over  Alps background. He was an observer pilot in the Italian Army during the First World War. His name was Gino Suatoni.
