Very beautiful job.
Only one doubt: the white band on fuselage is intentionally irregular or some correction is needed?

The detail provided in the kit is very basic: there is only the tubular structure.
All cables, hoses and other details were scratch built.

Happy new year to all, with the new year comes the end of the job on my C.200. Here below are the results: http://i389.photobucket.com/albums/oo332/lananda_2008/prova/dscf2572.jpg http://i389.photobucket.com/albums/oo332/lananda_2008/prova/dscf2578.jpg http://i389.photobucket.com/albums/oo332/lanand...

I have just received an email from Pierluigi Moncalvo with some very interesting notes. I'll try to translate the contents in my poor english... New evidences have almost overturned the situation, in particulary the fragments of the aircraft flown by Serg. Biagini. Digging out the wrecks of this air...

This aircraft was usually flown by Capt. Luigi Monti.
I post a photo of the actual aircraft:

thanks to all for your appreciations. Now the model il almost completed and i will post further pics in next days. For Vincent: i used MisterKit (acrilic), Xtracolor (enamel), Humbrol (enamel) and Vallejo (vynilic) paints. For Stefano: i know that perhaps i may find the item you quoted but sometimes...

I must precise that my reply is based on an article of Pierluigi Moncalvo that i found in GMPAT website (http://www.gmpat.it/pierluigi moncalvo.html).
I am now triying to contact Moncalvo in order to find a scan of the "Bollettino".

In my opinion the yellow color is improbable for the following reasons: 1-In any of the relics of shot down G-55 was found evidence of a yellow primer 2-the actual aircraft was rebuilt from a post-war G-59 and the traces of a yellow primer were found on this airframe; 3-the “Bollettino Tecnico infor...
