and you forget that the "Piggi" was used by Swissair until relatively recently.  Some of the ex-Swissair Piggis have been sold in the US

Hi Felix,
although that wasn't the context in my request:

the piaggio149 had been been flown in many countries and still is...
and by the way:
The FWP149 only had been built in license by focke wulf for the german airforce and was never delivered to switzerland..
swissair bought it straight from piaggio - and there is still a P149 trainer in service,
somewhere in Hausen/, but I don't know what hausen and which company, must be somewhere in switzerland.

However, do you know anything about an airfile respect./ a model or not ?


happy soft landings

I haven't seen one yet.

I started one, but other things have put that one on the back burner ...  but it is tempting, since I took photos of some of the ex-Swissair piggis in Sanford (SFB) Florida.

really ?
I mean if you are capable and tempted,
an old men's heart would be very happy...

I have quite a big panel photo of a swiss P149D.
I had own fotos, but I lost them on my move to Spain.

If you wish, I email that panel to you,
just let me know..

happy soft landings

Hi guys,

Swissair just sold all its piggis during the last couple of years. Also the panel that Swissair had in their piggis is not the original and is highly modified.

I would also be very interested in a fs 2002 model for the piggi. I am one of the lucky people on earth that can still fly the piggi since my dad owns one... So let me know

There is a guy here in Georgia that had a FW-149 and he lived in Cartersvile and it came to Calhoun to buy fuel and he did a flyby for us that plane had a sound that was just awsome I would love to get a hold of one for FS2002 i hope some of you designers decide to build it I will download it imeditly as soon as it is built
