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.

Macchi MC.202 "Folgore" , First Flight (W.I.P.)
- Thread starter mvg3d
- Start date
This Aermacchi C.202 was flown by the Italian ace Tenente Giorgio Solaroli, Marquis of Briona of 74 a Squadriglia 23°Gruppo, 3°Stormo C.Y. Abu Haggag, August 1942. The aircraft was painted in the branched-pout mottles style as applied on the intermediate production Breda-built machines. The unit badge represented an angry wasp holding a dagger with the left leg and a boxing glove on the right one. This squadron carried individual codes on the tail fin, sometimes painted in a white triangle, like on this aircraft. Solaroli survived the war with 11 victories and died peacefully in 1996.
Still not completely finished, but again nearly there....
