The lake was beautiful. A bunch of boats sailing around, people on the beach and some swimming, and OH WHAT IS THAT MONSTOSITY- oh, don't worry, that's a seaplane, a seaplane unlike any seaplane. It's called the Caproni Ca. 60 Transaero, an airliner that can hold up to 100 passengers and can do a transatlantic flight. Crazy, right? So, here is our story.

A man named Petero was going to fly to New york in america. He pays the plane ticket for 2000 italian lira. He then sits on a bench with others while waiting for the plane to come. On the distance, he saw a plane resembling the Ca. 60, but it was flying away so he assumed it was from another port. He saw another plane, but it was just a normal biplane so he ignored it.

After waiting for 1 hour, he saw a ca. 60 from afar on the way to the port. Everyone stood up as they prepared their bags. The seaplane then docked, and everyone went inside. Petero sat down and looked out the wooden window, they were going to take off.

The Ca. 60 took off and flew, and for about 4 hours of flight, while refueling, he was now in New york.

If the Ca. 60 didn't break on its test flight, the world would've been better.

FACT CHECK:
-The Ca. 60 was the futuristic plne of its time, 1921, it had 9 wings (3 each row), and lights on the cockpit for communication.
-top speed: 135 mph
