FSX / P3D Repaint for Payware Model

Cessna 182T N6978T

Cessna 182T N6978T gets a crisp blue repaint that refreshes the aircraft’s exterior while keeping the real-world registration and a clean, believable finish for everyday GA flying. Built for FSX, it requires the payware Carenado C182T and complements the model with matching colors that sit naturally in the sim.
