Breda-Pittoni BP.471

The Breda-Pittoni B.P.471 was an Italian twin-engine airliner/military transport produced by Breda.

As part of its efforts to get back into aircraft manufacturing following the war, Breda commissioned Mario Pittoni to develop a twin-engine medium transport designated the Breda-Pittoni B.P.471.

It had a retractable tricycle undercarriage and wings were of an inverted-gull configuration, this allowed the main landing gear to be short and light.

With no interest from buyers the prototype was operated by the Italian Air Ministry as a staff transport.
