Caproni Aircraft - Italy: Illustrated History Books & Guides

Campini Caproni - The History and the Technical Development of the First Italian Jet Aircraft

The book is based on all the information contained in the archives of the engineer Campini. Thanks to the heirs who kindly allowed the authors to consult the material. Generously filled with precious antique photos, several were even drawn from Campini's archives. At the back there are appendixes dealing with the technical aspect of the project.

Robero Bettiolo and Giancarlo Marcozzi, both engineers and keen of aviation history, dedicated over twenty years to the study of the Campini Caproni, resulting in the most famous research on the subject.
