ReviewsI enjoyed reading this book and can strongly recommend it to any modeler interested in the Macchi C.205V or the WW II Regia Aeronutica in general...a tremendous reference for detailing and painting any of those models., ...at least 32 color plates with camouflage & markings commentary provide plenty of project inspiration., I enjoyed the succinct history and massive number of photos, both black and white (wartime) and color (restored museum aircraft) photos, close-ups and more. Enjoyed it., This is one neat book. It will be of great interest to modelers planning on building a Veltro model and to aviation historians alike., Overall, it is an excellent book on the type and just the thing for enthusiasts and modelers alike.
