"VFR on Lario" project, free scenery of Como lake in Italy

[dva51]

Hi to all the "Recreational Flying FORUM" users.

 

I'm very fresh on registration and, as I'm an amateur as scenery developper and as next year will be the EXPO2015 in Milan, I would like to draw your attention on "VFR on Lario" project, a FREE work for FS9 just completed last year, after a work of two year.

 

Even if Italy is on the opposite side of the globe, I'm confident somebody could be interested.

 

You can find here a small video

and a complete document presentation

... and for more interested ones, who want to take a "dynamic look", a link to an excel sheet that connects to all the video presentations done

When I saw the name Lario I got all excited. Here is my Lario:

Good lookin' dog , mate!

 

 

[Old Koreelah]

Damned by faint praise!

When I saw the name Lario ...

Hi "Old Koreelah", very nice Moto Guzzi motorbike!

surely you know where this motorcycle was built: in Mandello del Lario on Lake Como, Italy.

 

Mandello is one of many countries that have tried to recreate in our project ...

 

Who will have the opportunity to come to Italy, I strongly suggest you visit Lake Como live: it's worth it!

 

bye

Stayed 1 night in Lugarno, and have traveled by train through Domadossala. I think this is on Lake Como. Stunning scenery! Don

Hi "Old Koreelah", very nice Moto Guzzi motorbike! :spot on:surely you know where this motorcycle was built...

Thank you Aldo. Yes I know my Lario was built there and that Moto Guzzi, being a builder of proper motorcycles, has it's own test track nearby. No wonder Guzzis love corners!

... Lugarno, and have traveled by train through Domadossala. I think this is on Lake Como...

Hallo Don

Lugano with his small lake is quite closed, about 20 km Est of Como lake; Domodossola is a nice town in a valley of Alps, about 70 km est of Como lake.

 

Unfortunately, these places are not covered in VFR on Lario sceneries,

My mother-in-laws family hailed from Lovero 101km to the east, next time I am in Italy, which incidently will be the first time, we are sure be up there.

... we are sure be up there...

Ciao "rankamateur"

you will be very welcome !

 

In the meantime, you can always take a look at the videos ... if not installing "VFR on Lario".

I used Max Tacolli's savannah model on my flight sim but never got into upgrading scenery before I trained to fly the real thing, now simming doesn't do it for me.

... "VFR on Lario" project, a FREE work for FS9 just completed last year, after a work of two year.... Aldo

Greetings to all

 

It is my duty to inform you that our invitation to donate freely to LISM is meant unfortunately now fallen.

 

I received today the confirmation of disinterest to our initiative. I just remember that this invitation was with the project VFR on Lario, with the elevations for Europe for Italy by Daniele Lanfranchi and in several of our other sceneries.

 

Here below the communication received, with related motivations

 

<< We are hereby notify that no donation is ever received to our Association, therefore we do not intend to renew as authorized by Dr. Cimino. As President of the ITALIAN LEAGUE SCLEROSIS MULTIPLE I confirm that it is no longer of interest to carry out your request. Sincerely, the president Maria Emanuele >>

 

I would still like to invite, even if no longer Vs. this address, all those who want to donate a free contribution, even if minimal, to benefit non-profit Associations.

 

I will certainly report the web addresses as soon as possible.

 

Help them to fly with us.

 

Aldo

Hello to all

 

after a long time from the latest news on the project "VFR on LARIO"

 

I wish like to inform you that, thanking the work of an enthusiast simmer,

 

it is possible to make a "conversion", to fly "VFR on Lario" with Flight Simulator X too.

 

On the following see the link to a "guide", where the installer simply summarizes what done to achieve the purpose.

Unfortunately, still flying with the old and dear FS9, I'll be not in conditiones to provide more details or specifications.

 

best greeting from Lake Como

 

Aldo
