This glorious plane, named "Rondone" was designed by Ing. Guagnellini and Frati during the late '40. It won several national races but also made 2 world speed records in 1953 and in 1954, on a distance of 100 km and 1000 km with a speed of 275 km\h (148 knots) with 90 HP. The Records were beaten only after 16 years. "Rondone" was saved by Enzo Marrucci and he restored it in 1996, respecting all the originality of this historical airplane.
