1:144 Pomilio PE
This is a paintable 1:144 scale model of a Pomilio PE. Its predecessor, the Pomilio PD, is also available. Since many painters choose their own mounting system, no peg is included on the plane. Pegs can be purchased separately in the Accessories section of this catalog.
While the Pomilio PD was proving its worth, many small modifications were undertaken to improve the aeroplane. The pilot's vision was improved by moving the gas tank, the engine was fully cowled with a front radiator, the wing cutout was altered, and the fin and rudder were modified. The result was the Pomilio PE, of which 984 were produced (of which 103 were dual-control trainers). The changes largely corrected the instability problems that had plagued the PC/PD.
It was the failure of the S.I.A. 7b that thrust the Pomilio PD and PE into a more prominent and important role. While they types had their defects (including engine failures, wing failures, and continued instability), they also had some outstanding strengths, chiefly their speed. They could operate without fighter escort and could outrun many Austro-Hungarian single-seat scouts. Pomilio PD and PE aircraft operated with at least 29 squadriglie.
