Thanks hesham. I'm not quite sure how I had missed the CANT 11 ... but it has now been added.

The Z.1003 was already listed ... but are you sure about it having being prototyped?

I know there was a single Z.506B conversion to landplane configuration (Mario Stoppani was meant to attempt an endurance record but that never happened). But, AFAIK, that conversion had the standard 'military' fuselage rather than the enlarged Z.506C/Z.1003 type cabin.
 
Hi,

CANT Z-1008 was a wooden construction version of Z-1007bis,as a three engined
bomber project.
 
If we are to believe the German Wikipedia, the CANT-20 was the prototype of the CANT-25 series:
The CANT 20 was designed in the second half of the 1920s for use as an onboard aircraft on the Alberto di Giussano class light cruisers. The first flight took place in 1927, but the first production version, the CANT 25M, was not introduced until 1931.

Be careful, I think this is a typo! The CANT 25 was developed on the basis of the CANT 18. The prototype was called CANT 25 and there were two production variants: the CANT 25M and the CANT 25AR.

Not CANT-11, but CNT II (or CNT 2), initially designated DGA3. Designer Alessandro Guidoni, Curtiss D-12 engine, two built.

I have the book,but I know very well CNT-II,and there's two
separated designs,

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:CANT_aircraft
 
English Wikipedia entries for both CNT-II and CANT 11 state the aircraft were intended for the 1924 Schneider Cup competition.

Italian Wikipedia has an entry for CNT.2, but no entry for CANT 11.
These English and Italian Wikipedia entries all give Alessandro Guidoni as designer.

The source for these three Wikipedia entries is identical:
Giancarlo Garello, Decio Zorini, Le officine aeronautiche Cant 1923-1945, Ufficio Storico dello Stato Maggiore dell'Aeronautica, 2003.

Ralph Pegram (@Schneiderman here) mentions DGA 3 / CNT II / CNT 2 as identifying one and the same design in his book. I suspect the CANT 11 designation is the result of someone misreading '11' for 'II'.

That's not a clue at all,CANT-10 was appeared in 1924/25,so it's
possible to existing of CANT-11 of 1924 ?.
