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.
