It's a real joy to fly! I am not sure if Craig will touch the flight dynamics for the final version, but I like it. When I need some rest from the "others" I am taking the Lohner out for a fishing exit. Craig at his best!

Well, the SVA was its direct rival at the Adriatic front; or course there were other types (mainly Ansaldo and Caproni) but, Alas!, the SVA is the only one for the sim (bty now, I'd like to see a nice Caproni CA33 bomber one day....(fingers crossed!!!)
Disclaimer; No "pun" intended against my friend Manuele or any of this creations; and certainly not against the legendary SVA; actually there is an SVA at out local Aviation Museum at Trento I carefully photographed for Manuele whe he asked me some details.

I'll try to make the paint FSX "friendly" (not shadowing too much and leaving the whole cleaner). Time for some "wooden work" this week. It has been very exciting because it is the first time I am doing a wooden fuselage. I've been confronting the results with the photos and paintings and I choosed to do a darker version. There are no signs of painting on the early 1914\1916 -M models so this is what it will look like.

Yes Craig! that is looking good.
What about four repaints for the original package? pre-war period,1914-1015, and wartime 1915-1917?
IIf there is enough interest, I could release a paintkit too.
