Odd Aircraft

Not really a book, just an article. However, if you are not really ready to build another Sopwith or Fokker.... there are some, ugh, other ideas in this little article. Enjoy....  :o

Thanks for the link Tankbear, there certainly are some very unusual looking aircraft listed.

Some of those aircraft are crazy but I do like the look of the Blackburn TB.

The Caproni Ca.60 is awesome!

If WnW ever produced one, this monster machine at 1/32 would still fill my living room!

The Ca.60 would make an exceptional model, may a good contender for a scratch build, but I am leaning towards the Sikorsky Ilya Muromets, a big aeroplane with a lot of history.
