Plan_D, as far as italians are concerned, do yourself a favour and read books like Chris Dunning's "Courage Alone", Ian W.Walker's "Iron Hulls, Iron Hearts", Paul Addison and Angus Calder's "Time to Kill", P.Caccia Dominioni's "El Alamein" or William G. Schofield and P.J. Carisella's "Frogmen: First Battles". Perhaps you'll understand that italian soldiers/pilots/sailors were as good as others and above all *why* they performed so poorly as an army. I dont care if you jump on the back of your country as well, it only demonstrates how stupid and poorly informed your posts are. BTW, most of the posters here understand, speak and write in two or three languages. What about you?.
LOL, get a life, with more than 10K posts you should get a girl and enjoy real life instead of posting insults here. | Gatt I'm going to tell you straight out - spirited debut is welcomed here but your last comment was way out of line - I will not tolerate this behavior especially from a new-bee on his first post - knock it off or I will ban you in a New York minute, Capisce l'amico? This WILL be your only warning...

Country:  | Roger that. I'm a WW2 aviation history buff and I was very happy to find a forum like this one. Well, happy till I read those offensive posts. Accept my apologies. Btw, I'll try to upload the SM81 flight manual as soon as I'll be back home this evening.

Country:  | I suppose there were very few Italians that were keen on WW2. It wasn't a war they wanted and thus they didn't fight quite that well. One wonders whether the sabotage worked all the way up the chain to supply. Certainly the problems were there in that Italian invasion as they had tanks and rifles against spears and arrows. For goodness sakes if it was Britain it would have been over in a day or two. Therefore there were leadership issues... | |

Country: | Does anyone have a three-view of the SM82? I'm going to be building a completely scale RC SM82 pretty soon, and I'm going to need a few three-views to get my bearings about it. I liked the threeview of the SM81, but I just can't get over the wheel pants. | |

Country:  | Aw, Joe... you had to put the lid on it.  That was mildly amusing.
I haven't seen this thread in ages ! I almost forgot what the SM.81 was !
