Here you get profiles normalized at constant scale (2 cm ---> 1 pixel) of all planes mentioned in title. In this order:
C-201 (Alcotán)
C-202 (Halcón)
C-207(Azor)
C-212 (Aviocar)
CN-235
C-295

Nice! I hadn't realized the degree of size difference among the Alcotán, Halcón, and Azor. Thanks for that :smiley:

Here you have information about other CASA small transports/liners

One of the most interesting projecs mentioned in last link, IMO, is INTA-20. Here you can see my depiction, based on information in mentioned link.
In original drawing, dimensions are not readable, but I think that wingspan is 20,00 meters; then I can deduce that length is 14,78 meters.

Two Azor in fictious Iberia colors and different propulsions: radial and turboprop

What if a liner derived from CASA C.2111?

Wouldn't an airliner derivative look more like the original He111C or G?

My take on this: http://beyondthesprues.com/Forum/index.php?topic=351.msg184583#msg184583 (http://beyondthesprues.com/Forum/index.php?topic=351.msg184583#msg184583)

^^^^^^
The main point is the diameter of fuselage. In the drawing I posted, C.2111 is 212 cm (exterior, top to down) and my proposal is 280 cm. He-111 is too narrow, IMO.

Two derivatives from C.207 Azor. first with radials and a "special canopy" and the second one with special tail fin and Jets

A pure invention made with fragments of CASA aircraft and Allison engines. :thumbsup:

In mid 50s Iberia decides to patron a project of an airliner to fly Madrid - Buenos Aires, non stop (10.050 km). CASA and INTA as technology partners design a 4 radials plane strongly influenced by DC-7, called INTA-40.
Here you can see INTA-40 along with its inspiration: DC-7C and INTA-20, which you can see in the thread devoted to CASA transports and liners. All of them in constant scale.
Designer's main interest was range. Fuselage is depper than DC-7's, allowing for tankage in belly area; besides this, it carries wing tips tanks. Accomodation is lower than DC-7's, but with more confort.

Now that looks like a first-class ride!! I could see some being bought for private usage as well as suitable turboprop conversions.

According to documentation in Secret Projects Forum, CASA-401 could look like this. Quite similar to italian G.222 on steroids IMO.
