FSX Airfix Savoia Marchetti SM-79

Airfix Regia Aeronautica livery for the Savoia Marchetti SM-79 by Manuele Villa. This repaint is based on the Airfix plastic model and the artwork of Roy Cross (probably Airfix's most famous box-top illustrator) for this aircraft. Texture by Enrique Medal, using the paint kit by Manuele Villa.

Installation: Copy the folder 'texture.AIRFIX' to the 'Savoia Marchetti SM-79 MVG' folder in your FS2004/FSX aircraft directory. Then copy and paste the text below into the 'aircraft.cfg' file of the SM-79, being sure to replace the '[fltsim.XX]' with the next number from the last aircraft listed.

description=After Italy declared war on Britain in June 1940 sinking British merchant and naval shipping became a high priority for the Regia Aeronautica. New more powerful versions of the S.M.79 were produced as dedicated torpedo bombers (S.M.79-Bis/N) and some existing S.M.79-Ms were given dual capability.
