not. Nice to see someone else build and fly these, but somehow I am not too
keen about flying in a machine built in the days when aircraft design and
engineering was still in the early stages. My dream is to build and fly a
Savoia S.55, one of the most extraordinary airplanes ever made and
quintessence of advanced 1920s aviation engineering.
