Designed by Francis Lombardi and test flown on November, 1938 during a visit by Bruno Mussolini, the Avia FL.3 represented a new level of training aircraft. Good handling, maneuverable, stable flight, good visibility and side by side seating were all virtues sought by new pilots. The flight schools criticized it for being too easy to fly and impossible to spin! After the Armistice of 1943, the Germans, who also appreciated it flying qualities sent 145 to various flight in Germany. It was built after the war and continues to be popular in Italy. A great read about this neat little aircraft.
This high-quality series of monographs is exclusively devoted to Italian WW2 aircraft. The series is edited by Giorgio Apostolo, the best known and most respected Italian Aviation Historian and the author of several authoritative texts. The volumes contain text in both Italian and English and contain the history of each aircraft and a technical description of the planes. Each book is lavishly illustrated with drawings from original instruction manuals and never before seen photos. The technical drawings ( 6-views ) are provided in both 1/72 and 1/48 scales; colour profiles, views and cockpit interiors are also provided.
