Hi,

Agusta was an Italian helicopter manufacturer. It was based in Samarate, Northern Italy.
The company was founded by Count Giovanni Agusta in 1923, who flew his first airplane
in 1907. The MV Agusta motorcycle manufacturer began as an offshoot of the Agusta
aviation company at the end of the Second World War, as a means to save the jobs of
employees of the Agusta company.

I will talk about its series,which has been consisted of Ag,AZ and A,which
later the last one change to be AW.
 
Beyond Agusta's AG, AZ, and A sequences which you mentioned, there were also AC and AP series. These were ...

AC for Agusta-Castodi with designer Mario Castodi.

Agusta-Castodi AC.208 - (Project) 1950 advanced trainer
- AC.208: Tandem 2-seat; low-wing monoplane; retr. u/c
- AC.208: 1 x 750 hp Isotta Fraschini Delta; span (??)

AP for Agusta-Preti with designer for the designer Ermenegildo Preti.

Agusta-Preti AP.100 - (Project) 1950 light transport a/c*
- AP.100: 2 x (??) hp (??) radial engines; span (??) m
-- * Skybolt described AP.100 as a touring aircraft
-- https://www.secretprojects.co.uk/threads/agusta´s-postwar-projects.1428/#post-11859

Agusta-Preti AP.111 - 1950 3-seat AMI basic trainer; x 1
- AP.111: Low-wing wooden constr., fixed tailwheel u/c
- AP.111: 1 x 175 hp Lycoming O-435-1 HO6, span 10.60 m
-- Tendered;* lost out to Piaggio P.148 & Macchi M.416
-- * Marked as P.111; aka Agusta A.111 or CP.111
- P.111: Wooden constr., retr. tricycle u/c potential
-- https://www.secretprojects.co.uk/forum/index.php/topic,1428.msg11891.html#msg11891

Agusta-Preti AP.112 - (Project) light cabin monoplane
- AP.112: Low-wing metal construction;* tricycle u/c
- AP.112: 1 x (??) hp (??) engine, span (??) m
- AP.112: Side-by-side 2-seater (conv. to 4-seater)
-- * Alata VII N.6 speculated alt. wooden constr.

Are there any pictures of the Ag.2, Ag.3 and Ag.6? Or drawing of the Ag.4 and 5?

Maveric, here is the same photo in a different link (in this one, you can isolate the image for enlargement).

Note that the captions are the same in the two links. In both, the aircraft are identified as 'Ag 2' and 'Ag B 6'. In other sources, the latter is seen as Agusta Ag.B6. But what does that B stand for? Could it be for a designer's name?
 
Thanks hesham. A few notes ...

"AC.209" = No such animal according to Skybolt.

He made clear (my emphasis): "So was [for] the Castoldi C.209, a private venture of the designer (or was it intended for Agusta again, we don't know, but in 1951 Agusta hired Zappata from the bankrupted Breda Aviazione)."
-- https://www.secretprojects.co.uk/threads/castoldi-c-209.7992/

So, just maybe, Mario Castoldi intended his private venture C.209 for Agusta. But "again, we don't know". That is, unless you have another, reputable source for that 'AC.209' designation.

As for the AZ.1-P and AZ.1-TP variants, no "maybe" ... they definitely remained unbuilt projects. But I haven't seen anything to suggest that either was enlarged (if that's what you meant by "large version". I've seen no explanation for their designation suffixes but the AZ.8 projects allow us to speculate.

Since the 'P' in AZ.8P stood for Pressurizzato, we can intuate that the AZ.1-P was to be a fully pressurized production variant (with lack of specificity suggesting that it was to be piston-engined). Purely a guess but, for the AZ.1-TP, we might speculate that the suffix was for Turbina Pressurizzato - in other words, a turbine-powered derivative of the AZ.1-P project.

Agusta AZ.1 - (Project) Twin-engined civil transport a/c
- AZ.1: 45-56 pax; piston or turboprop-powered variants
- AZ.1 : (Initial) 2 x Wright Turbo-Cyclone 9-cyl radials
- AZ.2: (Final design) 2 x Bristol Proteus 705 turboprops
-- Variants: AZ.1; AZ.1-P; AZ.1-TP (totalling 6,500 shp)
-- https://www.secretprojects.co.uk/threads/agusta´s-postwar-projects.1428/#post-11905

Agusta AZ.8 - 1958 4-engined feederliner prototype; x 1
- AZ.8 : aka Agusta-Zappata AZ.8/AZ8; AM RS-1 MM564
- AZ.8L: 26-seat feederliner; first flew on 09 June 1958
- AZ.8L: 4 x 570 hp Alvis Leonides 502/5s; span 25.50 m
- AZ.8L: aka RS-1 (MM564); aka Agusta-Zappata AZ.8
-- Sole AZ.8L to AM's Reparto Sperimentale di Volo
- AZ.8N: (Project) 22-seat version; non-pressurized cabin
-- AZ.8N for Non pressurizzato (Non-pressurized)
- AZ.8P: (Project) 30-seat version with pressurized cabin
-- AZ.8P for Pressurizzato (Pressurized cabin)

On the AZ.8, I realize that Skybolt said "for 50 passengers" but contemporary sources say 45-to-56 passengers. I would also dispute your claim that the "AZ-8 was a four engined version of AZ-1". Based solely on their general arrangement drawings - and ignoring apparent differences in size - I would note obvious differences in wings (both planform and dihedral); horizontal tail placements (cruciform for AZ.1, low-set for AZ.8); and cockpit shaping - the AZ.1 having a faired-in cockpit roof bulge (akin to the Herald or Viscount) which the AZ.8 lacks.

On the AZ.10, I've seen it listed as a 1954 twin-engined civil transport. Other than general description similarities, no mention of any direct AZ.1 connections. As pure speculation, the AZ.10 might just as easily have been related to the AZ.6 design of the same year.

As for an 'AZ-450', do we have any sources confirming the existence of that designation?
 
I begin with A or 100 series.

Good work hesham!

First, a few notes on Agusta engines (and beware that extraneous 'u' in A_gusta!):

The engines made by Agusta Meccanica Verghere SpA were sometimes referred to by maker as 'MV' - hence the modern term for Agusta-made motorcycles. (Does anyone know more about designer M. Ginnini?)

The 'GA' designation system display varies - eg: it is seen as MV G.A.140/V; MV GA.140/V; and MV GA 140/V. In the case of the Agusta A.103 and A.104, that '/V' suffix is important - the engine oil systems being modified for Verticale mounting. So, the A.103 was powered by an MV G.A.70/V while the 'standard' type was the MV G.A.70/O -for Orizzontale (although, understandably, you'll also see 'GA 70/0' [sic] ).

On turbine engines: The A.105 also flew (on 01 Nov 1964) with a TM.251 turboshaft. Despite its lack of a 'TA' designation, the Astazou-derived TM.251 was sometimes referred to as the Turbomeca-Agusta TM.251. (BTW, several sites list the TA.230 (Agusta's simplifed Astazou) with an output of 350 shp. That's actually the output of the improved TM.251. As you've said, Agusta's tweaked TA.230 only produced 275-300 shp.)

Now, a few notes on Agusta 'A10x' airframes:

Agusta A.101G: A dedicated cargo-carrying sub-variant of the A.101G was also planned (but never built).

Agusta A.103 : As noted above, powered by a vertically-mounted MV G.A.70/V.

Agusta A.104 : As noted above, powered by a vertically-mounted MV G.A.140/V. But note that output was 120 hp (not "140 hp"). 'Helicar' was just a branding name for the A.104 series.

Agusta A.105 : As noted above, also flown with the evolved Turbomeca TM.251 turboshaft. Nico also mentioned a 1964 A.105A concept powered by an Astazou. [1] Presumably the TA.230-powered A.105B was a refinement of this 'A model?

Agusta A.106: Some sources say that 2 x prototypes were built (and the Marina Militare ordered 5 x production aircraft before the A.106 programme was cancelled in 1973). Oddly, only one Matricola Militare seems to be recorded - that is MM5001 for A.106 n/c 01. In other places, one sees MM5001N but I'm not sure what the suffix stands for ... or if MM5001N also refers to n/c 01.

BTW, the A.106's TA.230 engine actually produced 320 shp (not '300' as Wiki claims).

Agusta CP.110: You could legitimately list this as an unbuilt project. Agusta was to be the series producer but, of course, that never happened. And the sole prototype P.110 was built by CVV/Politecnico. (Note that this 1951 designation was reused in the mid-'60s for compound helicopter studies (below).

Agusta A.110 - c.1965 compound helicopter studies; various layouts
-- https://www.secretprojects.co.uk/threads/agusta-a-110-four-engine-compound-helicopter-project.12600/

Finally, on the "C.209 or AC.209" perhaps a qualifier could be added to show that there is no known confirmation of Castodi's design being accepted by Agusta or designated as 'AC.209' [sic] ?

______________________________________

[1] Nico also mentioned a Astazou-powered A.104B. Not sure if that is an earlier, spatted take on what becomes the A.270-powered A.104BT or if it is a distinct model. If the former, I assume the "Astazou" mention to be in error.

Dear friends,

if one looks for Agusta "AG-1" in internet, it finds two photos. Both of them are here in one page:


But there are two completely different airplanes (look on nose gear at the right, for example).
Could you, please, clarify, where is the real AG-1 image (if it is...)

Thank you in advance!
