From the Vatican City: Pope's private heliport...



Here we see the Pope's heliport in the Vatican gardens. Nice Latin, eh? Thank Cardinal Bacci for the word helicopter in Latin and Father Foster for the lovely Latin of the inscription!
Quo Aptius Atque Commodius
In Civitate Vaticana
Commeatus Rationibus Prospiceret
Paulus VI Pontifex Maximus
Hunc Helicopterorum Portum
Aperiendum Instruendumque Curavit
A.D. MCMLXXVI - Pont. XIII
