CONTENTS
======== 

This is an FSX/P3D aircraft release. Read documentation within the G12_common folder.

This archive installs seven different liveries applied to five different MDLs for five different types of Fiat G.12. Where appropriate they also have different aliased custom animations, sounds, engines, cockpit layouts, gauges, flight dynamics and on screen handling notes. All components are closely based on the original manuals. A very detailed history and explanation of how to fly the five different versions of G12 supplied is included inside the 'G12_common folder' which also contains all other files common to more than one version. After installation choose Fiat from the manufacturer selection screen and check that the seven newly installed liveries are listed in historical order.

1941 G.12CR 605-7 Regia Aeronuatica

TIPS
====

1 - Turn gauge tooltips ON. 

All gauges are metric, with Italian naming, matching reality and the on screen handling notes. You will need tooltips activated to identify gauges, to monitor system states, and to locate and identify mouse hot spots. Most tool-tips also provide conversion to Imperial units. 

2 - In common with several other European nations Italian vintage era aircraft have thottles and RPM levers whose movement is opposite to US and UK practice. Minimum is full forward and maximum is full aft.

3 - Read documentation within the G12_common folder.
