After the installation I thought it would have been nice to have at least one Italian livery ... and did it :)

The zip file below contain however the original complete aircraft plus the I-SSPE texture

Few days ago I made a phone call up there ... to ItalFly, who has the operating base in Mattarello, asking if they could be so kind to let me have some pictures of the buildings as view from the aproon side: they have been more than kind: the day after I got some fantastic spots !!! And I was able to proceed i the development of the airport ... which is almost ready to be released:

March 10th, 2013
Got some hints from a friend on some bugs which still are present (not operating jetways); byy the way the work on LIME is still going on:

March 10th, 2013: LIME; the old auxiliaries building.

March 10th, 2013: LIME; the fuel depot, with the BP tankers made by Oliver Thurau for FlightGear !
Wanderful trucks !!!

March 6th, 2013
I know I do have still a lot of work to be done ... but I feel it is time to issue a new release !
Enjoy

Apparently, the bug I discovered on Jan 10th ... it's not a bug: I have been told that, if the server, to which I do connect, doesn't have the scenery I'm using, there will be this kind of inconxintecies :( !

Jan 10th, 2013
Just discovered a bug !
When entering LIME at a parking spot everithing is fine if I do operate FSX in stand alone mode (Free Flight); but if connect to an external multiplayer server (like the one of my Virtual Airline) the aircraft is positioned some 100 m away from the parking spot I selected !!! 
To be investigated:
Entering LIME through a multiplayer server (the right spot should be the yellow  "tee")

While if I operate FSX in stand alone mode ... everything is fine

Jan 4th, 2013
Even if slowly the airport continues to grow; lightpoles are in there and ... parking slots are improving :)
