Hi Jerzy

Apologies for missing this one first time around, looks a cracker.

Cheers Pat 

Pat, many thanks! 

Now I am thinking on Caproni 316, the float version, as scratch conversion from Ca111...I have already 309,310,311 and 314

Thank you, I've noticed the Broplan kit, but I found it is based on not the best drawings (when you compare to photos), I am very sorry to say it due to my personal admiring to Janusz Brożek, the designer and owner of Broplan.  Here are those the best drawings to Ca 316 http://www.cmpr.it/art. Ca. 316 di M. Serino/CA.316.htm (on top in all dimensions given in mm alredy for 1/72) as well as photos of Broplan parts. When you will compare, the main flaw is length of upper part of nacelles, on photos they goes right to the trailing edge and in the kit they ends well before it... Perhaps it is not very difficult to correct but since all my Capronis are based on Italeri kits that will be also.

But first I have to finish Lerwick...

Regards
