Re: Fiat C.R.42, shows italys ineptitude

Hello there,

I've just finished reading Luigino Caliaro's CR42 article in AVIONS. If I understand the text correctly the CR42 fought only two engagement in the Battle Of Britain (11Nov and 23Nov). They claimed 14 destroyed+4 probables which correspond to 0(!) verified destructions of British aircraft.
Luckily, for biplane enthusiasts like me the CR42 was more successful in other theatres...

Cheers,

Michael
