In the late 1930s, the Italian Government staged a publicity flight from Italy to Brazil via North Africa. The aircraft involved were three specially modified S.79 bombers. Carmel Attard has used the Pavla conversion kit on an Italeri S.79 to replicate one of the three.

As a big fan of Italian design, these planes are just great.
So different, so typical.
