Overview

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. The CANT Z.508 was a three-engine Italian flying boat developed from the CANT Z.501 for use as a heavy bomber. Designed as a scaled up three-engine version of the single-engine Z.501 for use as a heavy bomber. The aircraft was not put into production although the prototype set several world records for its class including the lifting of a 1,000 kg (2,200 lb) load. A flying boat is a fixed-winged seaplane with a hull, allowing it to land on water. It differs from a float plane as it uses a purpose-designed fuselage which can float, granting the aircraft buoyancy. Flying boats may be stabilized by under-wing floats or by wing-like projections (called sponsons) from the fuselage.
