BREGUET 1050 ALIZE
- The BREGUET 1050 ALIZE
is an ASW aircraft.
- She flew her maiden flight on the 5th of october, 1956, powered by a Rolls-Royce
turboprop. She was fitted with an american radar.
- On the 15 of november, 1957, the French Navy Air Force took reception of its first
Alize to test it.
- One hundred aircraft were supposed to be delivered but only 75 of them reached the French Navy Air Force due
to a budget cut.
- The Indian Navy Air Force showed an interest in this aircraft and 12 of them were delivered to India.
- All along her operational life, the
Alyze
was modified many times and revamped a few times. In 1977, it was decided that the Alize would
serve until 1990 : then she became the ALM
( AL for Alize and
M for Modern). Later on, she became the ALH
after another revamping.
- During 40 years of operation with the Navy, she took off from and landed on the French carriers
Arromanches, Clemenceau and Foch.
The Alize was retired form the active service when the Hawkeye entered service at the Lann-Bihoué
Navy camp.

Le modèle:
This model was designed with
AD2000
, the author of which is Hervé DEVRED. I asked him once some information
on MDL files and he sent me AD 2000 for test. To thank him for his trust, I decided to design
an aircraft with this program.
After reading the tutorial and designing the UGLY100,
the aircraft which the tutorial helps you to design, I felt confident enough to work on the
Alize. Frequent e-mails to and from the author
helped me to cope with the problems that you encounter when designing a model for the first time.
Thanks Mr. Devred for your patience and availability. Thanks again.
AD2000 is available on
www.actpub.com.

Installation:
Installation of the Alize with FS98 or FS2000 is quite easy.
Create a Breguet 1050 Alize directory in the AIRCRAFT directory of your version of FS. Unzip the
Breguet 1050 Alize file in it. If you are flying FS2000, that's it. If you are flying FS98, you need to
replace the Breguet 1050 Alize.mdl file which is in the model subdirectory by the
Breguet 1050 Alize.mdl file which is in the modelFS98 sub-directory.
