Ali e Colori 3
The Fiat G.50 was the first all metal monoplane fighter for the Regia Aeronuatica and was a typical transition aircraft. Its final design reflected the preference of RA pilots for unrestricted view. This requirement brought about the "hump" characteristic to the "Arrow" and to the Macchi C.200. Its service record was good, and the design would eventually lead to the Fiat G.55, one of the best fighters of WWII. In the hands of the Finns, the G.50 sported a 50-1 kill ratio against the Soviets.
This high-quality series of color references is exclusively devoted to Italian WW2 aircraft.

Each reference contains text in both Italian and English. Each book is lavishly illustrated with many color profiles replete with color specifications provided for each aircraft. Intended for the modeler but also a handy reference for specific aircraft of the Regia Aeronautica. Technical drawings ( 6-views ) are provided in both 1/72 and 1/48 scales.
