JCS, I dunno if you frequent AWF or not but there are some detail drawings of the Ba.88 from an original manual in the walkaround section.

You have to register on the forum to see some sections including the walkarounds.

Once youre logged in go to the Walkaround section and look in the '.:Walkarounds index:.' for the Breda 88 thread...

Fade to Black...

Cool, thanks for the link BW.

I think I might've registered there a while back but I've got no idea what my user name or password is

Nice diagrams and photos SM79!

Getting more obscure now. It wasn't actually built though, but nearly.

Wildcat · 08-23-2005, 10:04 PM

Looks like a cross between a Mustang and a Spit!

GermansRGeniuses · 08-23-2005, 10:48 PM

Don't remember.... I know it was made by an ejector seat company.

Wasn't it something like DB.5?

Wildcat · 08-24-2005, 12:34 AM

MB.5? perhaps?

cheddar cheese · 08-24-2005, 08:49 AM

I dont think it was an MB5, that was built. I think ive seen this somewhere though!

Piaggio108 · 08-24-2005, 09:02 AM

It looks closely related to the Hawker Tempest. The wing is just like the tempest, and so is the tail. Perhaps a Tempest w/ a griffon engine?

plan_D · 08-24-2005, 09:09 AM

I was thinking that. It looks like the engine could be a Griffon 85 with contra-rotating props married to a Tempest/Spitfre/Mustang kind of airframe.

I can't help but think it's Italian though.

red admiral · 08-24-2005, 03:03 PM

Its not the MB.5 nor Italian.

Hawker Fury prototype (LA610) with a Rolls-Royce Griffon 85 and contra props
