Here is a flying boat that was better off at boating than flying.

You got it Chris. :very_drunk: The Piaggio workers look like a proud bunch.

Over to you.

I’ve blown through all my Aussie material. No luck on that front but I don’t have the Meggs book!

Tough to say aa. My head has been in the clouds all day…

Submitted, one floating WOT…

Looks like it might be some type of Caproni product.

You would think Chris with the unequal wingspan, but it is not Italian.

Are my eyes deceiving me, or is this a flying boat with a fixed land undercarriage?

Very good question. It is listed as an amphibian but that looks like beaching gear to me. It’s older sibling was a pure flying boat.

There is an ebb and flow to these things.

Don’t think this one has appeared before. My apologies if so.
