Fiat CR32 in SCW
Vince, Thankyou for your very prompt response. I had actually printed the articles off the first time round and when I went to study them today, I discovered that Part II had printed out in such a blurred fashion as to be illegible. Your re-run clarifies everything. Many thanks once again. Regards, ...

FIAT CR 32 in early SCW
Vince, On approximately the 4th. December, 2010, Stormo published Alfredo Logoluso's addendum piece to his Osprey book, 'FIAT CR32 Aces of the SCW', describing the colours used by FIAT CR32's in the early period of the Spanish Civil War. Unfortunately, try as I might, I can't find it. Can you please...

Ca 101 Accuracy
I have now bought one of the Capronis and can confirm that the kit does indeed appear to be accurate in profile, according to my photographs. The angle of the photograph in the magazine article does seem to elongate the aircraft nose and engine nacelles, to my eye. Having only had time to give the k...

Fly Models Caproni 101 - Accuracy
Gentlemen, I have just opened a copy of Scale Aircraft Models International and noticed a build review of the Fly Models Ca101. I have been waiting for an injected model of this aeroplane for many years, and I noticed that the constructed model in the magazine appears to be quite sleek and streamlin...

SM81 Libia
Gabriele,
This one is equally as lovely as your previous example. Put it on a desert diorama background and it could be real 1:1 scale!
Congratulations,
Aeroal.

Vince, Very succinct summation of my understanding of the matter. I would be fascinated to see a photo of this aircraft, in the flesh, as it were. I still feel that the Spanish Civil War and pre-WWII SM81 colour schemes had much more pizzazz, for my money! I will need to go and have a dig through my...

SM81, 600 Squadriglia Trasporti, Libya 1941.
Bill, As none of our more learned friends have replied, I submit my thoughts on the matter, for what its worth. Try as I might, I cannot locate a photograph of this aircraft, which does not allow me to be very specific. With reference to 'Colori e Schemi Mimetici Della RA '35-'43 by Postiglione and ...

Fiat CR42 Cockpit Colour.
Dave,
Whether or not Salvadori's machine at Hendon was restored internally or not, Fiat cockpits were painted matt grey, grigio opaco, similar to grigio azzuro chiaro.

Fiat CR42 Interior Colour.
Dave,
There is no uncertainty as to the interior of the CR42. Verde anticorrosione doesn't come into it. It is matt light grey - grigio opaco. Humbrol 64 is not too far off it. Have a look inside the one at Hendon from the upper viewing gallery and you will see it clearly.

Decals for Macchi MC202 378-4.
Pante, The decals were available on Tauro Models sheet no. 48/521 to represent 378-1. This sheet also contains the markings of 85-4, the machine of Ten. 'Peppo' Re. The red 4 is the correct size to match the 378 to give you the markings you want, 378-4. You would have to make up your own mm. numbers...

Airfield for Stuka Diorama.
Stefanuccio, You can make your aerodrome for your Stuka to fit whatever scene you wish. Stukas were extremely rugged machines and were often operated from rough unmade strips close behind the front line. This gave the best available quick support to the German army in its blitzkreig warfare, and as ...
