Museo Caproni

[mimmo]

The Museo Caproni is one of the most important collection concerning italian aviation history. Among the various exposed pieces, there is one of the seven SVA 5 that flew over Vienna, and the unique Fokker D.VIII fuselage existent in the world. This piece was part of an airplane yielded to Italy after the armistice, as war reparation.
The fuselage has been accurately restored, and is probably that in the future will be integrated with reproductions of wings, rudder and others lacking parts.

I have alway thought that Italy's many achievements in aviation have been under appreciated. Thanks for the information concerning the museum.
