FSX Tan And White Cessna 172 N8643L

Installation:
- Drag and drop the "texture.N8643L (DXT3 1024)" folder and/or the "texture.N8643L (32 bit 1024)" folder into your default "C172" folder.
- In the usual fashion, copy and paste the enclosed [fltsim.X] entries found below into your C172 "aircraft.cfg" file in the proper logically sequential order, remembering to change the "X's" in [fltsim.X] to the next number in line among your Skyhawk repaints.
