This is the FS9 model of the Savoia Marchetti (SIAI) S73 or SM73, an elegant thirties Italian transport aircraft. After a 1.0 version Stefano Meneghini entirely rebuilt this 2.0 version. Main upgrades are: 1) Completely new GMax model(s), with improved details, animations and texture realism. 2) A new texture map allowing more flexible repaints. 3) More accurate flight dynamics and reference notes. 4) Original sound package added. 5) New panel w/metric gauges. 6) Historical documentation and handling notes are added. The package contains six texture sets, each with own model file with four different engine types in flight dynamics files. The liveries provided are: Ala Littoria (two liveries), Avio Linee Italiane, Nucleo Comunicazioni LATI, SABENA and Regia Aeronautica 605-3. Complete package with model, panel, virtual cockpit, texture sets and sounds. Models, virtual cockpit, sounds and panel by Stefano Meneghini, paints by Manuele Villa, flight dynamics, info and handling notes by FSAviator. Several gauges in this update employ bitmaps and code from the KEDI gau set by Hauke Keitel, some with minor modifications, renamed to prevent overwriting of the originals.
