Seeing the suggestions for HM for Japanese and Soviet aircraft, I keep hearing about a Macchi 202 in the works. HM does great work and I prefer the 1/48 scale personally. What are the groups votes for the top 3 Italian Aircraft?

Mine

Macchi 202 / 205 ( the 202 could be midified with out too much trouble into a 205 and include Regia Aeronautica & RSI liveries as well.)

SM.79 Sparow Hawk - The tri motored torpedo bomber version acquitted its self fairly well in the war against the British convoys in the Med.

CR-42 Falco - The Gloster Gladiators adversary over Greece

I have interviewed some Italina vets and will be visiting one in Florida next week. is there is any interest here is the web page with the interviews.

I vote for the same three: MC-202, SM-79 and Fiat CR 42 in that order.

I'd like the MC205 but the MC202 will do just fine. The Fiat G55 next.

[Cruver Collecter]

Macchi Mc 200, Fiat G 50 and Fiat Cr 42. (Swap out Mc 202 for the Fiat G50)

[Aeolus]

Fiat G.50
Macchi Mc 200

I see you boys prefer the older types. Me, I think its about having a real engine, the DB 605.

1) CR-42 in 1:48

2) SM-79 in 1:72

3) Re 2000 in 1:72

Mc 200 in 1/48th scale would be great, nice selection of desert paint schemes too.
