About This Content Said to be the most successful training aircraft ever produced, the Cessna 172 Skyhawk first entered production in 1958, since when more than 40,000 have been built. The ‘N’ model was introduced in 1977 and featured an upgraded engine, with additional options such as air conditioning and larger fuel tanks becoming available before the introduction of the model ‘P’ successor. Developed by Carenado, the FSX: Steam Edition version of the C172N Skyhawk is a beautifully detailed aircraft ideal for VFR flying. This pack includes four paint schemes and two models, with and without fairings. (Fairings are externals features which cover gaps and spaces between parts of an aircraft in order to reduce drag).Features: External dynamic shadows, internal dynamic shadows on VC, normal mapping, specular mapping and bloom lights Polygon optimized modelInteractive virtual cockpitAnimations include ailerons, elevators, rudders, flaps, rolling wheels, doors, pilot’s window, tilting co-pilot seat, sun visor, fresh air control and vibrating antenna3D modelled pilot and cockpit areaDetails include pitot pressure chamber, antennas, chocks, pitot tube coverCustom panel and gaugesRealistic light effects on gaugesNightlight effects on panelReal weight and balance4 paint schemes2 models: with and without fairingsNormal and Emergency Procedures PDFReference document 7aa9394dea Title: FSX Steam Edition: Cessna C172N Skyhawk II Add-OnGenre: SimulationDeveloper:CarenadoPublisher:Dovetail Games - FlightRelease Date: 9 Feb, 2017 FSX Steam Edition: Cessna C172N Skyhawk II Add-On Download For PS4 NEEDS AUTO PILOT!!!. This is a nice plane to fly, but there's no doubt that it's meant for VFR. Yes, there are nav frequencies and com frequencies, but no, there's no ILS landing system that I've found so far. Also, while the left door and window open and close just fine using their respective handles, the right window doesn't open at all, and the right door and baggage hatch can only be opened\/closed by Shift-E 2 or Shift-E 3. I don't know if this is a reflection of the real world airplane.The cockpit is tidy without the usual yuckiness found in freeware offerings, I just don't like the white instrument surrounds, but that's a personal taste thing. Someone has provided a dark surround for use with this aircraft that looks much better in my opinion.The engine starts very readily\u2014perhaps too readily, even when I don't use the primer. It's also no A2A plane, though I expected as much from the price. Personally, I think it's worth the price I paid (50% off). One wrinkle I struck with this plane doesn't refer to the plane itself, but rather the manual. The last page of the manual duplicates (roughly) the previous page, with the only difference being a note that the aircraft is fictional and for simulation purposes only. I think some content got missed off, and I'd love to see this corrected some time in the near future. The content certainly doesn't reflect the depth of the information available in the original Pilot's Operating Handbook, it's\u2014barely\u2014enough to get you off the ground and back down again.(Edited to update information). Only thing wrong with this DLC is the RPM indicator was taken from a Piper Cherokee.... The green arc should only go between 2000 and 2500 rpm. Other than that, great DLC! 9.9\/10. its a great aircraft carenado did a 9\/10 job making the C172Nhas great flying charateristics. Just flew this plane during a real world lesson today, and flew this addon 172N directly after my lesson. It's a very faithful recreation, especially with P-factor during takeoff and climb. The tachometer's green arc is too large, which I believe should go from 2000 until the red line at 2700 rpm. Highly recommend if you're looking for a real-feeling GA aircraft..
