...a strange form for a plane...
The P180, official nickname "Avanti", unofficial nicknames: "winged cockroach" because of both fuselage form and engine noise, and "flying catfish" because of the nose mounted winglets, is probably one of the most advanced turboprops, surely the only civilian turboprop to be able to fly as fast as most bizjets. Its line can be pleasant or not (matters of point of view and personally I don't really like it, liked a lot more the P166), it remains one of the best italian built planes.

There's but one real cure for human stupidity. It's called DEATH.
At the moment mourning the assassination of sarcasm and irony for the good of the "higher".
