Fiat G.2

Pioneer and Early Aviation Aircraft

The Fiat G.2 was an Italian three-engine, six-passenger monoplane transport designed by Giuseppe Gabrielli and built by Fiat. It was the company's first low-wing cantilever monoplane, with an all-metal structure, fabric-covered control surfaces and a fixed, wide-track tailwheel undercarriage with spatted mainwheels. The standard G.2 was powered by three Fiat A.60 inline piston engines, one in the nose and two in wing nacelles, and variants used Alfa Romeo, de Havilland Gipsy Major or Fiat A.54 radial engines. The prototype first flew in 1932. Although promising, it failed to sell and saw only limited service with the airline ALI between Turin and Milan, with operators also in Brazil.
