CremonaSoft A310-304 released

A few days ago, CremonaSoft has publicly unveil their first aircraft product; the A310-304. The aircraft has now been released on the .org store. The second model from Airbus, the A310 and the A300 paved way for the widely popular A330 and awkward sister A340. CremonaSoft has offered two variants, the passenger variant and the -304 MRTT for in-flight refueling.
