Description:
Thanks to Andrew Spring of www.p166.com!!
The third of the coming P-166 aircraft series. I'm going to built the whole family of these graceful twins.
The Piaggio P-166A is a light small twin. An Exotic two-engined prop that sold all over the world including America, UK, and Australia. The S version is used by South Africvan Air forces. Comes with a longer nose and larger tip tanks for greater range, as it's a maritime patrol vresion. Its origin is traced Back to the Piaggio P-136, a light anphibian, wich the P-166 keeps the wings, the engines and the tailplanes. The first P-166A flew in November 1957. The aircraft is still in production in a slightly modified turboprop version, the P-166D-P1. This model is 788 Kbs with c.a. 23000 polygons in c.a.170 assemblies. Features Clickable Dynamic VC with non-planar throttle quadrant. Detailed internals. Fully compatible with FS 2002 (pro edition)
