Italian Planes

[cheddar cheese]

i never said the italians were an effective fighting force

 

[plan_D]

And neither will many others...

I think the Italians had the edge over the French in terms of their navy.

 

[plan_D]

The French certainly did, but I don't see this as a major disadvantage to the French. There really was no serious need to control the oceans for either member their supply would have been homegrown, and the British at least would have been the supplier of the French.
The Italians wouldn't have had the capability of attacking vessels crossing the Channel.

wouldnt it be funny if an inland country had a navy

 

[plan_D]

Switzerland is a landlocked country and it has a Navy.

 

[cheddar cheese]

only the swiss...

 

[plan_D]

It's not as silly as it sounds. They have three patrol boats, that are based in the lake that is in Switzerland but I can't remember its name.

 

[cheddar cheese]

hmmmmmmm

 

[the lancaster kicks ass]

yes, in case of invasion from the swiss on the other side of the lake................

 

[cheddar cheese]

exactly, its silly

 

[plan_D]

No it's to stop immigrants sneaking over the lake...

My friend, I think you've gotten the wrong name for this poll, should be called which was the worst italian plane built during WW2 (with one exception).

Speaking of the Best italian planes what do you think about these?

Fiat G55
Macchi C203 and 205
Reggiane Re2000 and 2001

Cheers

I believe you are refering to Lake Geneva.

 

[cheddar cheese]

the G.55 was probably the best the italians had, the 202 and 205 were pretty good as well but i dont knoew whethe the Re-2000/2001 were any good. and you're forgetting the SM.79, that was good also 8)

 

[plan_D]

Thank you, LG. I cannot believe I forget the name. I really should remember a name like that.

 

[cheddar cheese]

i thought it was lake geneva too but i though it was too obvious

 

[the lancaster kicks ass]

i take it this was where the geneva convention was written up??

 

[cheddar cheese]

yup 8)

 

[the lancaster kicks ass]
