THE “Do.X 1” was launched on July 12, 1929, hence we can now look back on the experience collected in the operation of this new aircraft over two and a half years. This experience has been gained with three different types: the original type aircraft, or “Do X.1” (Fig. 1), with air-cooled engines; the same aircraft in its modified form, the “Do.X.1a” (Fig 2), with water-cooled engines, and the “Do.X.2” (Umberta Maddalena), the first of two flying boats built on behalf of an Italian firm, with water-cooled Fiat engines. (Fig. 3.)
