Dont tell anyone but so am I. They look pretty similar to me. Great photos Aaron. Get off the naughty chair and come and sit with the others. Does anyone know if they make a model of that CANT seaplane. Shes a honey. Steve Love the blue wonder. That would seriously have pride of place in my house. Also great period pic. You dont win a prize as you grassed Aaron up. No more telling tales, or youll have to dress as Ms Loren for the duration of the build. ...Guy |

Oooh, I know! Pick me! Pick me!
First off it's a Cant Z.506 Airone...and yes, she's very pretty. In 1/72 there's the old Supermodel/Italeri/RoG kit, which is actually very nice...at least as nice as their Bv 138. In 1/48 there's the
molto costoso Alphaflight resin kit.
Supermodel put out quite a few 1/72 RA heavies in fantastic kits (for their age) that are nicely detailed, cheap, easy to find, and accurate. They are also a lot of fun to build. Some of these are:
1/72 SM 81 Pipistrello
1/72 Bv 138 (Italeri and RoG have both repopped it)
1/72 Z.1007 Alcione - this is the single tailed version
1/72 Z.1007 Bideriva - twin tail version
1/72 Z.506B Airone (Italeri has repopped it)
Can you tell I'm a huge fan of Supermodel, and of Italian aircraft in general? If my plate wasn't so full, I'd be in with at least 3 other builds. Now, if only some one would bring out a kit of the Z.511!
