FS2004 Alitalia Avro Lancastrian I-DALR

Alitalia’s classic Avro Type 691 Lancastrian I-DALR “Borea” arrives as an authentic 1947-era repaint, capturing the airline’s early long-range passenger operations before the DC-4 takeover. Designed for FS2004, it requires Plane Design’s Avro Lancastrian payware package and includes period-correct markings and fleet-specific identity details.
