Hello from a new member,...

Hello! Thank you for allowing me to become a part of the forum. I am in the process of putting together s piece of living history involving fighter pilots from World War I. In putting together the different props for the presentation I've been gathering models, information, and other items. Some of this involves building paper models for dioramas. I've downloaded a few planes and engine information and models so far. I've heard of the man named Zito but don't know much about him or his work. Does anyone know how I can find his material on the internet? Thanks again and I look forward to learning more about this fantastic hobby.

If you are thinking of Zio, unfortunately he has passed.

and right now his site is down, we think his family did this.

I am not sure if there is a movement to restore his site, or rehost his models.

Rick

Welcome to the forum. Unfortunately, Zio's site has succumbed to the robots.txt plague. It can no longer be accessed through the Wayback Machine

Hi Michael! Welcome to the forum. Thanks for joining. Would love to watch you build those dioramas. Bad news about Zio's models but keep searching the net. There are a good number of WWI planes out there. We're glad you're here. Welcome aboard!
