Italian Army Takes to the Air!
In a spectacular excercise held outside Naples, the Italian Army has exhibited it's newest capability: an 'air corps'. President Case attended the exhibition and was most impressed by the display, vowing that "Italy's future lies in the skies".
It is rumored that Italy's newly aquired aerial technology was developed following a Ministry of Science report noting that Italy's booming trade had left the country with a huge number of what the report called "beakers" of scientific potential.
Naturally, this technology has been shared with Italy's eternal French and English Allies.

CEC continues to struggle!
Despite doubling in size, the Civil Engineering Corps still struggles to keep up with the tasks designated by the Premier. However, help is on the way, 9 new brigades are to arrive before July to augment the current engineers.
Railroad closures
Due to maintanance work on the railway close to the English Channel, all frieghts are to be routed through between Strausburg, Stutggart and Nancy. Further closures for pollution cleanup are taking place in NorthWestern France as well, neccesitating road travel and possible delays in delivery, full service will resume next month.

Turkish scientists develop flight, a short while after their italian counterpart!
Now the race is on to be the first to put into the air an "heavier than the air"...
Mush rushbuilding going on in Turkey, which is still the happiest country in the world (approval rating 79%).
And the save:

Hey Vincent, did I end up sending a thank-you to you for the postcard? I wrote it at work, and may have neglected to send it due to my boss wandering outside his office
(if anyone reading this is an Australian taxpayer, then I'm very sorry for how I spend your money  )

The Italian government has decided that the German nation needs more rifles, and has approved a delivery of arms from Anacona to Munich.

The influx of Italian small arms in southern Germany has put our own arms production in a surplus, but fortunately the commander of France's garrison at Arnhem has been considering refitting his troops with more modern weaponry.
After he offered a contract to the lowest bidder for 1,240 bolt-action rifles, the government-owned arms factories in Erfurt bought the contract and supplied the Arnhem garrison with brand new Mauser K.98's. Despite several injuries due to breech explosions, most of the men see them as an improvement over their antiquated Lebels.
The Mauser Karabiner 98.

The Race is won!
The friendly race between italian and turkish technicians is over: the Turks are the first to present an heavier than air!
Specialists say that it is only a matter of month before the brilliant italian scientist provide the same tool to the italian military!
On the civil front, many improvements were built, among them a few to reduce the pollution that is starting to appear in Turkey!

If you have a website, just upload the file to it and then put the URL in (img)(/img)* tags in your post. If you don't have a website, just make a crappy geocities one for nothing but uploads or use the upload feature available to all posters here and at CFC.
* - You actually use brackets, but if I type these in with brackets the forum shows that unidentified image red x symbol.

Mock me all you want. I already have a couple of fighter and bomber squadrons in the Balkans (I was able to divert production from warships and, erm, other complex projects  )

President Case Takes to the Skies!
President Case has become the first European leader to make a journey by air. The President made this historic trip between Bologna and Split in the brand new Zepplin which has been named in his honour. More such Zepplins are in production.
