Caproni Ca.49

Flying Boats and Seaplanes

The Caproni Ca.49 was a proposed Italian seaplane airliner of 1919 that was never built. The Caproni company designed it as a passenger seaplane, a four-engine triplane with three engines driving tractor propellers and one driving a pusher propeller, with passengers carried in an enclosed cabin. No specific engine was chosen, though Caproni envisioned the four engines as being rated at between 224 and 279 kilowatts each. The estimated figures were a crew of two, a length of 13 metres, a wingspan of 34.5 metres and a wing area of 200 square metres. No examples were built.
