This well researched publication deals with the twin-engined reconnaissance aircraft designed by Ing. Cesare Pallavicino and produced in the hundreds by the Caproni Factory of Ponte S. Pietro (Bergano) and of Taliedo between 1939 and 1944. The Ca.311-314 were allotted to dozens of aerial reconnaissance squadrons and were also sold to the air forces of foreign countries such as Sweden, Yugoslavia and Germany. This new volume contains a great number of never before published photographs. The specially commissioned colour profiles are rendered by the well known artist Richard Caruana and present aircraft both in Italian makings as well as markings of foreign users. The accurate five-view drawings are also by Richard Caruana, while the very useful technical drawings originate from the aircraft instruction manual. All the historical and technical information are researched by Giorgio Apostolo, the most respected aeronautical researcher of Italian WWII aircraft. Dual Italian / English text.
