'A yank in the Regia Aeronautica' :lol: :lol: :lol: The bombers are CRDA CANT Z-1007's an all wooden mainstay of the Italian air forces, along with the SM-79. The HURRICANES look like they are wearing either Belgian or French markings-so !!??!! stock footage I'd guess.
Interesting to see how the upper turret was rotated and fired and the bombardiers station and the crew oxygen in regular commercial steel cylinders. Thanks for a rare peek behind the curtain :wink: :D
