Does anyone know where I can find a plan/sketch of the Caproni-Vizzola F.7 fighter aircraft?

Cheers

It'll probably just look like the F.6M. THe F.7 was meant to be "more advanced", at a guess, I'd think reshaped wings with greater area and different aerofoils.

Hi!

Sorry, I found nothing on the Caproni-Vizola F.7 - but we had

THIS ONE on TGP, already: http://www.tgplanes.com/Public/snitz/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=1255

Great stuff, RT!


But - may I draw all the other spectators' attention towards THIS little gem, too?

The "Aeronautica Umbra 18" -

It's sooooo cute! I'd LOVE to see some three-side drawings of IT! :D

Any ideas, folks?

Cheers!

Friends, your requests are forwarded to airwarfareforum.com. I also can ask contributor *Ghibli* personally, if there would be no sufficient answer from the forum.

The AUT.18 is already earmarked for a GOT topic. Hope I find out more than *Maurib*.

Nothing about Caproni-Vizzola, sorry.

But I've found this :)

HI,

RT, this is good new. I am really looking forward to your GOT (:D) on the AUT.18 (Why the Hell must I always think of "Austria" when I read this AUT.18-airplane's name...? Silly!) - as GOT as ever, I am shure!

Grifo: GREAT DRAWING! This baby appears to me like a mixture of a Mitsubishi A6M Zero, witch had a romantic adventure with a Seversky P-35. In a movie, it could mimic both - and half a dozen other aircraft, too. I like it's very clean lines. It would definitely make a great modeller's case.

Thanks a lot for this 3-view-drawing!

Cheers!
