    @TheOwlAce Somehow your' incarnation of the "Marbanian Bomber" has a more ... "Real" feel to it than those sketches.

    Reminds me a bit of the Savoia-Marchetti S.55 & S.66, I think it was. Romania still had a few S.55s in their air force as late as '43. The Regia Aeronautica used S.66s for Search & Rescue but their S.55s were no longer serviceable and were kept in reserve.
