Airborne Alfas

Hi ,
The full address of Alfa avio was as follows..
ALFA ROMEO AVIO-SOCIETA' AEROMOTORISTICA PER AZIONI,
R & D DESIGN TECHNOLOGIES -PROPULSION & AEROTHERMODYNAMICS,
80038 POMIGLIANO D'ARCO
NAPOLI,
ITALIE.
I am attaching a press release from General Motors from 1997 which I think sheds light on the extent of Alfas role in major jet projects they are clearly taking the lead in the development of a GE badged motor.
You mentioned above wing planform of the Caproni ca.602 ,I cannot find any photos or drawings of the 602 wing , but I have two photos of the ca,603 .As the wings are substantially the same ,with the exception of the extra strut on the 603 ,you can get an idea of the wings on the 602.
I have also traced the photos of the ambrosini s.7 freccia swept wing . this was fitted with an AR 115 for flight test, it was this aircraft that was later modified to become the SAGITTARO, replacing the AR 115 WITH A Marbore jet engine ,
I will post them below.
