1/48 Flying Machines Fiat G.55

March 3, 2019 · in Aviation · · 14 · 2.2K

1a Squadriglia, Cascina Vaga 1944. The Flying Machines kit was created by / CMK and is the same plastic as the SH kit but comes with extra resin cockpit and photo etch parts and also parts to do the torpedo bomber version. They screwed up the hood portion of the canopy so I used an old Falcon canopy and cut the hood from that. I kept weathering to a minimum as this camouflage scheme, which was experimental, was on the aircraft for a short period of time before the 74, 75, 76 scheme was applied.

  3. Nice ! You did it again and posted up another beauty... This plane looks much better in my opinion wearing these colors over the standard RLM 74/75/76.

    Italian camouflage is always unique.
