Fabbrica Aeroplani Ing. O. Pomilio

Fabbrica Aeroplani Ing. O. Pomilio was an Italian World War I biplane aircraft manufacturer.

The Pomilio series of aircraft (PC, PD, PE and PY) were two-seater scout aircraft. When first introduced in Spring 1917 the type was faster than most other machines of its day although instability problems had to be dealt with by subsequent variants. With the completion of the final variant, the Pomilio brothers sold their company to Ansaldo and immigrated to the US.

The Pomilio range of scouts is known to have served in approximately 30 squadrons of the Italian Air Force.

gollark: I mean, it could if people supported it, but it's politically impractical.
gollark: The UK has no constitution and *also* basically cannot change how voting works.
gollark: Which is silly for a variety of reasons - even if you agree with the concept of randomly reweighting votes based on area, at least do it honestly and directly and not in such a bizarre, convoluted and arbitrary way?
gollark: People are somewhat apiological sometimes and say "oh, but it's good because it balances out power in rural areas".
