Meraviglie in Scala 1:1
Sunday I visited the Vigna di Valle Museum, half an hour's drive from Rome.
I was able to see up close many planes that I admire and in particular 3 of the next ones that I want to represent.
The Macchi M.39 winner of the 1926 Schneider Cup, the CANT 506Z that my wife's grandfather flew and a P51D (F51) that I will represent just like the one exhibited at the Museum.
I'll post some of the thousand photos I took... marvels.
Wow, that is a great museum, Davide @dapo68
For sure you had a wonderful day out there.
Unfortunately during my recent visit to Rome we were not able to have a visit as well.
I noticed on one of your pictures that they seem to have a SM79 as well, do you have more pictures taken of the Sparviero.
Yes. I have some... here they are
4 attached images. Click to enlarge.
Thanks a lot for sharing, Davide @dapo68
I do have one in stash which I definitely want to build.
Perfect! Unfortunately I haven't done many of these... I needed to shoot others...
Looks like you had a good day out, Davide, thank you for sharing the photos with us.
I'm happy to share it!
You certainly had a wonderful time there, Davide @dapo68!
Thanks for sharing these amazing pics!
Ciao Spiros @fiveten... It's true... it's a pleasure share with you
G’day Davide (@dapo68),
My family and I visited the museum on Christmas Eve 2017 and the five of us had a great time as there were only two other visitors. After that we toured the nearby castle for a day that we all enjoyed.
I loved seeing the elegant Schneider Cup racers and the WWII aircraft, the latter being my particular interest. There is also a fair selection of post war aircraft, too.
It is great to see your photos.
wow... the museum is actually really beautiful.
... I'm happy you like the photos!
Thanks for sharing the photos.
it's a pleasure...
