Felice Trojani

Felice Trojani (18 April 1897 – 3 November 1971) was an Italian airship and airplane engineer.

He collaborated with Umberto Nobile and participated in the preparation and shipment of the dirigible Italia to the North Pole, which was lost in the fleeting flight of 1928 on the polar banchisa. Trojani was one of the survivors of the disaster and, along with his comrades, was saved on the arctic pack after 48 days spent sheltering in the famous Red Tent, which he designed.
