G.50 Freccia in Finnish colors?They used them far longer than Italians did and arguably with bigger success.

You know, I was thinking about it for a while.
Germans used Freccias too.
Both could be interesting.

Did not know the Germans used them. As combat a/c or just trainers, etc.?

They were probably used in combat late in the war. The one in attachment is from Luftwaffe's JG108(Jagdgeschwader), Wiener-Neustadt, Austria 1944.

Advanced trainers.Germans didn't consider many Italian planes as viable battle ready aircraft.Not to mention troubles with getting parts for them and manuals in German.

JG 108 was advanced training unit,bit like OTUs were for RAF.

I like the Finnish and German G.50 ideas; what about Nobi's SOC Seagull as a landplane version?

Long Live 1/100!

With wheels? Ask NOBI. I won't redesign whole landing gear. You have no idea how difficult it is. I can only make a recolor and slightly redesign some parts like with "Tabby".

I think I'll start the poll today, I've found some interesting subjects. One plane will be my choice, one plane will be your choice, voters
