    Anyone have any interior shots of the cockpit and/or interior of the Caproni Ca. 311? I've come up totally empty on multiple searches.

    Hi, there is a good walkaround (with some interiour pics too) of a restored swedish Ca.313 here:

    Caproni Ca.313 walkaround

    Ca.313 was very similar to 311, being only difference in engines (can't remember if swedish 313s interiour was different from italian version, though). It might be a good starting point, anyway.

    Cheers

    I don't know if anyone noticed...

    ...but those exhaust pipes are a work of welders art! Leave it to the Italians!

    size cm 21x29,7 - italian/english text
    60 pages - more than 80 b/w images, color profiles by Richard Caruana.




    Cheers
