FSX Cessna 150 N2772J

This repaint package provides a distinct blue-and-white exterior for a Cessna 150 variant, adapted from the freeware “Just Flight” Cessna 152 model. It features a matching interior and includes all necessary configuration details for seamless integration into Microsoft Flight Simulator X. Created by Tom Tiedman, this addon preserves the classic trainer characteristics of the original Cessna while enhancing visual appeal.

Detailed Visual Enhancements

The airframe’s modernized paint scheme combines clean lines with a balanced palette, emphasizing the Cessna 150’s signature high-wing profile. The textures extend into the cockpit area, which aligns with the chosen color styling to maintain an immersive cabin environment.

Key Repaint Characteristics

• Realistic fuselage textures and proportional lines.
• Authentic markings replicating the N2772J registration.
• Matching cabin upholstery to showcase a consistent theme.

Notable Characteristics of the Aircraft

The actual Cessna 150 is widely appreciated by student pilots and flight schools worldwide for its sturdy construction and straightforward handling. Its side-by-side seating arrangement makes it ideal for primary flight instruction and short cross-country trips. While broadly similar to the Cessna 152, the 150 exhibits classic instrumentation and a reliable powerplant for stable, dependable operations.

1. Verify that you have the freeware “Just Flight” Cessna 152 base model installed in FSX. That core package is necessary to operate this repaint and is available in the Fly Away Simulation library.
2. Open the aircraft.cfg file located in your “Just Flight Cessna 152” folder. Find the existing [fltsim.x] entries and replace the “x” in the bracket below with the next sequential number.
3. Copy and paste the following block into the aircraft.cfg file, ensuring the correct numeric order:

   [fltsim.X]
