The new flight simulator of the Aeronautics department will also be inaugurated. There are many possibilities that the school in via Riviera Prangi offers, and every year it continues to churn out new professionals. On the other hand, the increase in the student population is also clear proof of the attention that the Institute still arouses. Nautical graduates still represent true excellence today, managing to distinguish themselves in various fields and not just nautical. Today there will be many people who will pay tribute to the school directed by Francesco Vinci.
