• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

Dress is always a great clue - these gentlemen are far too well-dressed to be British, and their pants aren't 6 inches clear of their shoes so they can't be American. Who are the smoothies ? Italian, of course !

It's the Ambrosini S.7 Freccia.

(up at 3 in the morning - wide awake - had half an hour on the keyboard, then back to sleep like a baby. It happens with old age !)
 
Doesn't look like the S7 in Wikipedia or in the photos.........This one has a swept wing with wing fences.....

Edit - further searches show it was a S7 fuselage with swept wings etc as research for the jet version Sagittario. I shall go away & hide again!
