@graolo Hi there. The G46 first flew in 1946, and production terminated in 1952. I dont know about this specific aircraft though Im afraid.

Thanks for sharing this. The bird has surprising go. There was one I got an up close look at over at Republic, and it was purportedly airworthy, but I never saw it fly.

did this plane compare with me or fw?

[fabiex1986]

@Rico8458 It's Absolutely not comparable to them, because it was just a trainer, it has Gypsy Queen or an Alfa Romeo engine, with 250-215 hp. Despite of the low power, it's faster than a t6 Texan and with an excellent maneuverability.

In Italy there're 3 of them in perfect flying condition, one of property of the IAF, plus a private owner who's restoring a fourth one. With a little more powerful engine it would have been a great plane, with very good performance!

My family used to own the Fiat G46 and restored it to the condition you see it now though unfortunatly we had to sell it.

And no it is not a copy it is the only one flying in the UK, at least i think it still is as i haerd the engine finaly went!

Question: this is just a copy? It seems to be smaller.
