Inside the hangar at Fantasy of Flight. The Nardi FN.305 was designed as a trainer and liaison aircraft, first flying on 19 Feb 1935 with an inline engine. The main production variant was a two-seater, with single-seat variants also produced. The FN.305 was used by Italy, France, Hungary, Romania, Chile and the Luftwaffe. The long-range FN.305D was powered by a 200 hp Walter Bora engine, one of which was used to set a record between Rome and Addis Ababa in March 1939, covering 4463.8 km at an average speed of 240 km/h. This aircraft served Regia Aeronautica as MM380 before civilian use. This photo is copyright © Arjun Sarup, and may not be used or published in any way without permission.
