Five water runways (one real on Como and four dummy in Bellagio, Dervio, Colico and Lecco)

and five seaplanes make up this first preliminary version.

A special thanks to Gianluca   :good: ,  the author of this traffic

a "summer" greeting at all :smile: 
I'd like to reassure friends following this project (which has over 11,500 downloads in total, pardon me the digression :P )  that B4 the 14th scenery is "processing" although a bit 'slow, because of the particularities of this area of Lecco :blink:  (overpasses , bridges, railway station, etc.) in addition to the large number of houses that exceeds the Autogen limit (300/tile) and must be integrated with library, generic building etc ... and finally the summer does not help to speed up!
However, with a little 'patience we hope to complete this third last scenery, at the turn of the holidays.
I attach a couple of images with state of the art with respect to Lecco
Bye to all and ... happy holidays!

:wink2: Aldo

Thanks so much for your excellent scenery! I enjoy flying around Lake Como so much that I hope to visit there some day. I found some FSX scenery for the aero club which is nice but the lake area is incomplete.

 

Thanks again and keep up your great work!

Dear friends simmers and lovers of Como Lake - Italy,We are pleased to bring to your attention our project "VFR on Lario", which began last year.With its 17 locations, this work intends to cover the entire area of the lake and surrounding mountainswith land photoreal (multiseasons and night) mounted on exceptional and realistic meshes.An accurate and widespread autogen, along with many other library objects and dedicated ones by GMax,complete the best vision in detail.Finally, the inclusion of seaplanes AI traffic give you a great sense of realism when flying VFR in sight.The project, clearly ambitious, will require adequate time for its completion, but anyway,we are still confident to finalize it as soon as possible.Below is a link that will provide interested parties a more detailed descriptionhttp://dl.dropbox.co...n%20Lario_0.pdfenjoy your flights to Como Lake of Italy!by Aldo (objects), Daniele (photoreal and meshes), Diego and Gian Mario (autogen)PS: those who want to join us, to improve and accelerate the development, is welcome!

Looking foward to your Project  B)

Going back to the previous :smile: , I confirm the continuation with the penultimate scenery A3 (Annone lake, Cornizzolo mounth and high Brianza areas), that will not have many specific details except the overpass of the highway to mount Barro and some gliders in the air.
Then the 17th and last scenario (SE inland Como lake, from  Montorfano to Pusiano lakes), even here there will not be special things with the exception of the airport AVL (Aeroclub Volovelistico Lariano) entitled to Giancarlo Maestri. In fact, today it is just uploaded a "foretaste" of this runway, in a "smooth & light" for FS9 standard, without photo-realistic and special meshes: a small tribute to users who use Flight Simulator 2004 without adding mesh details. In fact it is an addition to the similar jobs ( :italia-flag: Italian) made ​​with the same principle that do not accept non-standard mesh elevations (Como_idroscalo, Dervio scenery and Calcinate del Pesce of Feb2011, AirFolies Casorezzo of gen2011, Legnano scenery 1 and 2 of Feb-Mar2011, Turbigo power station of set2011 and the three Cameri sceneries of ott2011)
Of course, the airport AVL G. Maestri now posted, will be duly adjusted to photo-realistic terrain and elevations in the last A2 scenery of VFR of Lake Como project. 
bye
