Preserved Asso 500 engines - pictures

[Vicente Vazquez]

These are somes picture I took of a pair of Isotta-Fraschini Asso 500
engines, here in Brasil. These engines belong to what I believe is the last
original Savoia-Marchetti S.55 in existance today. One of the engines is
already restored while the other should be restored in the near future. BTW,
the restored engine is fully functional.

Location: Parque de Material Aeronaútico de São Paulo (São Paulo, Brasil)
