Aeronautica Macchi Fighters Quotes

“The last of the celebrated seaplane racers designed by ing. Castoldi, the MC.72, despite not participating in a Schneider Trophy event, established - once finally developed - numerous world speed records, culminating in 1934 with the absolute world speed record for seaplanes of 709.209 km/h, a record still unbroken in this category of aircraft.”
