Why can I not get to see pictures of this plane. I click on the small image, but the picture does not come up.

I was looking at a sight from Australia and to my great delight they had a section about forthcoming models. Lo and behold Italeri is producing a 1 32 scale Macchi 200. Let's hope it doesn't take too long, as I just celebrated my eighth ninth birthday. I would like to get one before my expiration date.

Happy Birthday Vince 89 yrs :clap: ! No expiration for you!



Regarding photos and images not loading, that's an issue on the hosting side where the images are stored. Kriss loads his pics to another site and connects to Stormo using an image path/url. Because Kriss connects to another site to display his pics here, there could be issues with too much traffic, a poor connection to the hosting server or connection speed: some or all of these variables will interfere with a pic loading from somewhere else. To display a photo that doesn't load in the Forum just refresh your screen. If you have an Android phone, down-swipe and the images should reload. On a laptop or notebook, use F5 in Chrome or Edge, and in Firefox Ctrl+R to refresh your screen.

Its nice to see Italeri focusing on WWII Italian a/c, it'll be interesting to see how many kits they make because these kits sell out quick.

Construction of the test model completed and the Caproni Ca.100 from FLY in 1:72 looks finished like this. The build went without any problems, the parts fit very well, the decal is fine and lays very nicely on the surface of the model. The only thing missing from my decal is the clocks on the instrument panel. For the extras I made the fuel lines from the photos and all the strings. Model of Caproni Ca.100 aircraft, Military School, Italian Air Force, Venice, Italy the 1930's. Thank you to the company “FLY” for providing the model for review.

Beautiful job - expertly done. You've gotten very good at applying this camo, and in a very difficult scale 1/72 too. Write up a short review and an article for the Gallery.
