ColR1948 Posted August 10, 2019 Share Posted August 10, 2019 (edited) An old bird from Italy, the Fiat GA12 CA, there are more versions to come of the G12, I know Jan already has them so he may post his collection. I couldn't help but wonder what the aircraft would look like without that nose engine, so I put the DC3 nose on it as an example lol.

ColR1948 Posted August 11, 2019 Author Share Posted August 11, 2019 (edited) On this Subject of Tr-Motor Aircraft I recently downloaded 8 different versions of Savoia Marchetti aircraft, funny thing is I used to have them all on my old Hard drive before it crashed and I lost them.

zswobbie1 Posted August 11, 2019 Share Posted August 11, 2019 Wow, can you give a list of the Savoia's you found? I simply love the older SM's & Fiats. (FS2004, if possible) Robin Cape Town, South Africa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jfwright Posted August 11, 2019 Share Posted August 11, 2019 Nice plane and good shots of it. Interesting nose rework on that last shot. Jim I am a King Air fan. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peer01 Posted August 11, 2019 Share Posted August 11, 2019 (edited) Oh yes, I have a lot of "trimotors" in my hanger: Junkers, Ford, Avia's. Dorniers, Cantz, BN-Trilander, Fokkers, Savoia's, Dewoitines, there are a lot of three engined birds for FS. Here's the last one I found, never knew it existed: British built Airspeed Ferry (not an engine in the nose, but on the roof...)

CRJ_simpilot Posted August 12, 2019 Share Posted August 12, 2019 I had no idea Fiat manufactured planes. And what an odd design at that. OOM errors? Read this. What the squawk?

lastivka Posted September 25, 2021 Share Posted September 25, 2021 ... can you give a list of the Savoia's you found? I simply love the older SM's & Fiats. (FS2004, if possible) The Savoia Marchetti S.73 is very nicely modeled by Stefano Meneghini for FS2004. It has different civilian and military versions as well as documentation describing navigation and handling. It is available here on Flightsim (s73_v20.zip). An upgrade is also available here for FS2004 (s73_up21.zip). A further upgrade to an FSX version is available here as well (s73_v30f.zip).

lastivka Posted September 25, 2021 Share Posted September 25, 2021 (edited) A civilian version of the "Spaviero" — Savoia Marchetti SM.79CS is very nicely modeled by Francesco Giuli, and available here on Flightsim (giusm79.zip). More civilian repaints are available on SOH (FS9_SM79civile_repaints_UT.zip). Another version of the civilian Savoia Marchetti SM.79CS by Manuele Villa is also nicely modeled and available here (s_79cs_t_fs9.zip).

lastivka Posted September 25, 2021 Share Posted September 25, 2021 A "clean" repaint version by Huub Vink of the civilian Savoia Marchetti S.79CS I-ALAN (Manulel Villa version) is available from SOH (FS9_I-ALAN_SM79_Clean_I-ALAN.zip). Also a replacement sound pack, edited to deliver the tri-motor sound of three Alfa Romeo 126 radial engines is available for the S.79 from SOH (SM-79_Sound.zip).

lastivka Posted September 25, 2021 Share Posted September 25, 2021 The four-engined civilian airliner Savoia Marchetti S.74 is nicely modeled by Manuele Villa for FS2004. It is available here (sm74_v01.zip). It does not have a VC, but a CFS2 version converted from the FS2004 version, claims to have a VC, available from SOH (SM74_for_CFS2.zip).

lastivka Posted September 25, 2021 Share Posted September 25, 2021 The Savoia-Marchetti SM.95, together with the Fiat G12 featured above, was one of the first airliners of Alitalia, the new Italian company after the War. This type of aircraft entered in service in July 1947 on the route Roma-Oslo. The last flight ws in September 1954, due to the entry in service of more modern aircraft with pressurized cabins and modern avionics. A model of the SM.95 has been modeled by Francesco Giuli for FS2004, and is available here on Flightsim (giusm95.zip).

jankees Posted September 25, 2021 Share Posted September 25, 2021 I'd love to see any of those trimotors make it to MSFS! But apparently there's a Ju-52 coming... Slapping paint on flightsim models you'll find all my FSX/P3D repaints here and all my MSFS repaints here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ColR1948 Posted September 25, 2021 Author Share Posted September 25, 2021 As for Fiat I had a neighbour give me a Fiat 500 air cooled engine car, it was in a bit of a state. I cleaned it up and inside and out and when he saw it he was sick, he said, "Blimey, never knew it could look like that, I would have kept it." Col.

That goes for buying domain names. Now-a-days it's a very fine art. But boy would I have loved to have amazon.com et al. x.com was the precursor to PayPal. Guess who owned and now reacquired the x.com domain? There's nothing there but a text document, but he bought it back for nostalgia purposes, and I would do the same thing.

They were fun little rides if you didn't need to get anywhere fast and could afford all the oil! Having said that, in today's world where everyone seems to think one hand is for the wheel and the other is for the phone, I'd be petrified to take it out on streets with a speed limit over say 25mph!! :eek::eek: Same for the Renault Dauphine and a ton of other similar rides.

I worked around a vendor guy in the 90's that was into Beanie Babies?? On business trips to Europe, Japan, even just around Michigan he was more interested in buying/trading Beanie Babies than doing the job he was sent there to do. Even though he was third generation management in the company, they finally let him go. My only question was/is, why did it take them that long??

ColR1948 Posted October 3, 2021 Author Share Posted October 3, 2021 Ha Ha Michael, yes I hardy ever put petrol in as well, it seem to run for ages. I once owner a Reliant 3 wheel van, fibre glass body, that was a bit novel. Do you know of a DAF 3 cylinder engine car, the man who used to live next door had one, it wouldn't start normally and he had to push it and jump in to bump start it? Col.
