Title: Caproni Ca. 3
Post by: rhwinter on March 03, 2016, 07:28:00 PM

Something that looks like a slightly damaged Caproni Ca 3 to me...

Should Wingnut Wings ever decide to step a little aside from their Western Front-topics and have a go at the Italian Front, they will surely not only stay with providing us with wonderful models of the wide array of beautiful single-seaters and flying boats, but soon give us a huger plane, like - let me guess - a Caproni Ca. 3. Then they will surely make good use of this pic for the details!

Do I know the seller? No, I don't!

yes, it is a crashed Caprini C3, with some peculiar characteristics, indeed:
I marked the stange features fo this Caproni in the photo - not sure if they are the result of some repair
