Last summer a Piaggio P-180 Avanti flew into the local airport. It is a neat looking airplane and has a very distinct sound when it is airborne. I looked around and the only kit of it I could locate is the Italian Kits 1/72 scale model. Has anyone every built this kit? Is there any other kit of the Avanti available?
never heard about this kit, i’ll try to search something
just saw one the other day, its based out of the airport near my office.
Gorgeous aircraft, unique sound.

I have the Cunarmodel (Italian Kits) kit but was hoping to find something a bit larger. The kit has a highly detailed cockpit area, seven passenger seats, a table plus other items. It is a lot of detail which won’t be seen as the fuselage windows are less than 1/8 inch square. There is a windshield but no windows for the fuselage. It should be a challenge to build.
no hear about 1/48 kit but i hope you share the works on the little
