Design and development

The Vale was a sleek single-seat parasol wing braced monoplane powered by a 130 hp (97 kW) Farina T.58 radial engine. An improved variant, the Supervale PM-4-1 had a 140 hp (104 kW) Fiat A.54 engine. The start of the second world war halted design and development by the company.
