An Italian pilot boarding on its fighter aircraft, a Macchi MC.202 “Saetta”. This last is a “tropicalized” plane with the anti-sand filter on the left side of the engine cowling and the tipical livery “North Africa”. But the photo seems taken on an airfield of an Italian Island (Sicily or Sardinia) nearly the sea and not in Summer. Note in effect the pilot’s dress not “hot climate”. Victor Sierra
