The Ambrosini SAI.3 was an Italian two-seat touring aircraft that took to the skies for the first time in 1937.
Design and development
Featuring an elegant elliptical low-wing monoplane configuration, the SAI.3 employed a fixed tailwheel landing gear arrangement. Buyers had the option of either an open or enclosed cockpit layout. Powerplant choices included an inline Alfa Romeo 115 engine or a radial Fiat A.50 engine. An enhanced variant, designated the SAI.3S, incorporated a narrower wing chord and was equipped with a Siemens-Halske Sh 14 radial engine, delivering markedly improved performance compared to the initial SAI.3 model.
