FSX Cub Yellow Cessna 172 N758KD

Cub-yellow Cessna 172 N758KD brings a playful Piper J-3C-inspired look to the default Skyhawk, complete with matching markings for “Eastern Hops Cessna Sunday” flights. Designed for Microsoft Flight Simulator X, it refreshes the exterior textures while keeping the familiar cockpit and handling, and requires the default Cessna 172.

How to install this mod

FSX / P3D aircraft
  1. Extract the downloaded archive

    Use 7-Zip (free) or WinRAR to extract the ZIP to a temporary folder. Don't install while still zipped — the simulator can't read inside ZIP files.

    Place the aircraft folder inside FSX\SimObjects\Airplanes\. The folder must contain an aircraft.cfg file. Effects go into FSX\Effects\; gauges go into FSX\Gauges\.
  3. Verify in FSX

    Launch FSX, go to Free Flight → Select Aircraft and find your new aircraft under its manufacturer.
  4. Always read the included readme

    Every mod ships with a readme.txt or README file. It tells you exactly where files go, what dependencies are needed, and any quirks specific to this add-on.
