Apophenia said:Again, that caption has a typo -- it should be Boccaccio (after Paul Boccaccio) not 'Boccacio'.

cluttonfred said:I also really liked your model. In fact, I happened to be discussing jet-like propeller-driven designs over at homebuiltairplanes.com and shared your images over there with a link back to this page. I hope you don't mind. Cheers, Matthew

Could this have been a predecessor to the 280T?Hi,
The Wibault-230T was three engined transport aircraft project,
but I have no more details.
Could this have been a predecessor to the 280T?
More Info from TU magzine,From Aviation Magazine 1966,
here is a Wibault Wib.12T,a light transport version Project of Type-12.
Very nice, thanks!BAE Systems has a page on the Vickers-built Wib.7 C1 (ignore the '7.C2' typo in the title) which includes photos of airframes being assembled at Weybridge for Chile.

Vickers referred to the type as their Type 121 Wibault Scout. Apparently, the Aviación Militar and then Fuerza Aérea Nacional referred to its fighter simply as 'Vickers Wibault I'. These aircraft served (1927-1937) alongside the similarly-powered prototype Vickers Type 131 Valiant (although the latter crashed at the Escuela de Aviación Militar within a year).
I took the profile drawing of the Wib 313 in my own way trying to get as close as possible to the truth. This profile is certainly far from perfect, especially for the rear of the fuselage, but I tried to solve the details of the engine hood where it seems to me, but without being able to affirm it, that the engine is equipped with propellant exhaust pipes ...The Wibault 313 (also found variously as the Wibault Wib 313 or Wibault-Penhoët Wib 313) was a single engine, single seat low wing monoplane fighter submitted to the 1931 C1 (single-seat fighter) competition (won by the Dewoitine D.500). Only one prototype was built.
