Today we’re looking at the CANT Z.501, a plane whose history included breaking records, and the unplanned removal of the occasional limb. Despite some dangerous drawbacks, this plane saw widespread use with Italy's Regia Aeronautica, and it served throughout WW2 long after it had been deemed obsolete.

Producing these videos is a hobby of mine - and apparently its now a full-time job too! I have a passion for history, and personally own a large collection of books, journals and other texts, and endeavor to do as much research as possible. However if there are any mistakes, please don't hesitate to reach out and correct anything :)
