I present surely the ugliest thing to come out of Italy for awhile, the mighty Stipa Caproni. On a bumble-bee like glide into Whangarei airport over the harbour..
Would take a braver man than me to test fly this thing, but apparently was quite innovative in its own way (claiming to have influenced later jet engine design), yes the fuselage is hollow

[Splitpin]

Maybe its me But try harder fellas , Ive yet to see one ugly aircraft ... some damm good screens , but ugly ...hmmmm.
As they say .... in the eye of the beholder .... and i do need specs these days.

Brave indeed, how many people can say that they took their windtunnel for a spin?

Yes...it is a bit inside-out, isn't it?

[Ian Warren]

Italy and the French machines would the ones to look for UGLYNEST, a classic would be the Caproni Ca60 would the ultimate in UGLYNISUSUM - look more like a sailing ship than an aeroplane

On August 23, 1981 this Aviation Traders ATL-98 Carvair made its way into Nelson as i was not born so have no recollection, only the photos that mum n Dad have saved for me in a scrap book.

Growing up this A/C (From the Scrap book) always stuck out like a sore thumb (As the UGLY A/C big nose Guppy it was to me)

1) The screenshot image must consist of a screen captured from a Flight Simulator program (FS2004, FSX or P3D)
No photos

I walked around these two Carvairs and kicked the tires just before they left Hamilton in the mid 1980s ... propeller power 747s

A few miles north of Ashburton, spotted this 'rara avis'. It's the Curtiss-Goupil Duck - built by Mr C as part of his defense against the Wright Brothers' patent lawsuit.
