THE CAPRONI CA 60
THE GREATEST AIRCRAFT THAT EVER FLEW

THE CA 60

WHY THE CA 60 IS THE GREATEST AIRCRAFT OF ALL TIME

It was built in 1920 when principles of aircraft design were well known

The test pilot was named Semprini

Despite it's massive size, it was merely a prototype for a 150 seater designed to cross the Atlantic

It had twice the wing area of a B52 bomber

It had eight engines delivering 3200 horsepower, ten times as much as the average passenger aircraft of the time

It had funky bay windows

It looks like something out of Stop the Pigeon

It was completely uncontrollable and nose dived into the lake just after take off

It was "mysteriously" destroyed in a fire while undergoing repairs
