FSX Hawaii Police Cessna 150 Aerobat

This add-on features a specially repainted Cessna 150 Aerobat with Hawaii Police markings, designed for aerial oversight and suited for enthusiasts who want a new livery in Microsoft Flight Simulator X. Created by Tom Tiedman, this repaint transforms the Just Flight freeware Cessna 152 into a visually striking aircraft ideal for sim pilots interested in law enforcement operations or general aviation flight training. You will need the original freeware model, which can be found in the Fly Away Simulation library, to use this repaint.

Distinctive Police Livery and Purpose

The Hawaii Police repaint applies a blue and white color scheme to replicate a local authority surveillance theme. Its fictional registry, N2927T, indicates a specialized role for inshore patrols or cooperative missions over the islands. This version of the Cessna 150 Aerobat emphasizes aerial observation, merging the standard high-wing layout with a police-inspired finish that is both authentic and visually compelling. Although the name says “Aerobat,” the original design supports limited aerobatics, yet it remains primarily a versatile trainer known for its stable flight characteristics.

Focus on Realistic Detail

The exterior showcases strategic paint lines reflecting a law enforcement vibe, assisting in quick identification and adding variety to your virtual hangar. Inside, you will see the usual cockpit instrumentation of the base model, offering an immersive look at the typical gauge layout used for training and low-level patrol flights. The high wing design also grants unrestricted downward views, essential for tasks such as coastal monitoring and general policing activities.

Technical Notes and Integration

Before installing, ensure that the freeware Just Flight Cessna 152 is already present in your simulator. The modified livery is provided as an independent texture set, which will merge seamlessly with the existing aircraft folder structure. Once installed, the plane will appear under the “Cessna” category, ready for flight with a Hawaii Police label and new callsign.

Installation Procedure

1. Aircraft.cfg Configuration: Open the “aircraft.cfg” file within your Just Flight Cessna 152 folder. Insert a new [fltsim.X] entry in proper numerical order. Replace “X” with the next sequential number among other liveries.
2. Texture Folder: Copy the entire texture.N2927T folder into the same Just Flight Cessna 152 directory. This completes the installation of the Hawaii Police skin.
3. Save and Launch: Ensure you save the altered configuration file. Then launch the simulator and select the new repaint, which appears as N2927T under the manufacturer listing.
