The Savoia-Marchetti S.71 was the Italian entry into the tri-motor competition. Unlike the German entry, the Rohrbach Ro. VIII Roland, this aircraft used the radial, air-cooled engines, nine cylinders. Incidentally, the Russian entry, the Tupolev ANT-9, also used the radials.

Do you have any comments about this aircraft ?
