About This File
FSX Alitalia SE210 Caravelle. This is a real Caravelle flown by the author (logging some 2000 hours) in the good old times and it features reflective metallic skin plus full animations. The livery is that Alitalia, Italian Air Lines, used in the mid 60's. The panel background was created entirely from scratch, based on photographic material found on the net and some material from the original Alitalia Flight Manual. The gauges layout of the panel is the one used by Alitalia, with some little changes due to sim restrictions. Note that all labels in the panel are written in French language, just as choosen by Alitalia Operator. The systems management of the real aircraft was pretty complicated, so it has been kept reasonably simple in this model, avoiding lots of working switches and buttons... just to make the operations as familiar as possible for the average simmer. Most of the gauges have been created by the author, a few are default gauges. Included in this model there is also a virtual cockpit, with working essential flight instruments and animated flight controls, plus camera views. By Italo D'Attomo.
