Macchi MC 205 Veltro

Unmissable Italian/English volume that tells the story of the Macchi MC205, the II WW Italian aircraft that was meant to take the place of MC202. Complete and rich of technical details, with coloured photos both wartime and current (the modern shots include cockpit views and the contemporary views offer some useful references for the distinctive green/sand "ring" camouflage of the Veltro). The book has totally 22 coloured and 37 black and white illustrations and various hand drawings. A chapter is dedicated to MC 205 pilots? uniforms, all described
with great precision. In the appendix we find the story of Luigi Gorrini, the pilot that flew the most with this aircraft. To complete the monography the author describes in detail two model kits: Hasegawa and Supermodel.
