trickyrich Posted January 21, 2020 Share Posted January 21, 2020 welcome along Jes with build #4!! I have a feeling this is a GB you were looking forward to! Another really interesting and unusual choice, which i had to read ap about as well. Not a very successful aircraft at all, but still a very interesting one for the GB. Well good luck with this one as well, I think by now you'll have a loyal set of follows for your amazing set of aircraft/builds, I look forward to seeing them all in the gallery. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christer A Posted January 21, 2020 Share Posted January 21, 2020 A Caproni! I wonder if the 310 was as rubbish as the 313 that Swedish Air Force used... Good luck with the kit in any way! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trickyrich Posted January 24, 2020 Share Posted January 24, 2020 a nice looking model, what is in those bags? Skis? She lacked performance as it was, to have skis fitted....it's a wonder she even took off! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anybody trying to use Ca.310 series as a real bomber was sadly dissapointed. Planes were good as scouts, light bombers, COIN, trainers and communication planes anything above that was too much for such small plane Hungarians were so dissapointed with them that they returned their entire order of Ca-310s and Caproni instead delivered Ca.135 bombers. Yugoslavia bought them and used them as 2 engined trainers for Do-17, Blenheim and SM-79 crews and light bomb trainers and were quite happy with them. They even bought few Ca-310bis (looked like Ca-311 with few windows closed down) and few Ca-311 (5 delivered of 15 ordered few days before attack on YU) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Torbjorn Posted April 21, 2020 Share Posted April 21, 2020 (edited) The biggest issue was that they tended to fall from the sky if someone in the crew as much as coughed too loud, no matter what task they were performing. edit: though they were also misused for a while, including as dive bomber (which was very trendy in Sweden too) and the Germans shot down a few as well.

BTW COIN was at the time more honestly marked "for colonial duties" so hardly any FLAK, fighters and such pesky and unpleasent things. A peashooter at most but that was honestly dangerous enough for Ca.310 series Edited April 21, 2020 by TISO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CliffB Posted April 22, 2020 Share Posted April 22, 2020 Whatever it's shortcomings in reality, the plane makes a lovely subject for a model. I love the artistic curves of the canopy glazing . Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JOCKNEY Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 I really like this aircraft, it's an "Anson in an Armani suit" ! Keep up the good work. Cheers Pat 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Model is brush painted with Humbrol paints, all the small dots took alot of time. 🤩 Canopy frames are also painted with brush free hand.
