FSX Blue And White Cessna 172SP

Blue-and-white repaint for the default Cessna 172SP adds a clean N5572Y scheme with carefully smoothed paint lines and sharp 32-bit textures. Two texture resolutions are included, offering a crisp 2048 set and an efficient 1024 alternative for smoother performance in FSX, and it requires the stock C172SP.

default Cessna 172SP repaint in blue and white. 32 bit no mips 2048 x 2048 textures (crisp and clear), or 32 bit no mips 1024 x 1024 textures for better frame rates, but also surprisingly crisp and clear... (I've been practicing hard at smoothing out the saw-toothed paint edges, and I kinda surprised myself on this one!) Install them both at the same time if you wish. Easy installation. By Tom Tiedman.

INSTALLATION:

1.) Copy and paste (or drag and drop) the enclosed "texture.N5572Y 2048 x 2048" and/or the "texture.N5572Y 1024 x 1024" folder/folders into your FSX default Cessna C172SP folder. Both work fine when installed at the same time, as long as you don't change the "title" line in the "aircraft.cfg" file to read the same for both.

2.) Open your C172SP "aircraft.cfg" file and copy and paste both of the enclosed [fltsim.X] infos. found below into your "aircraft.cfg" file in the logically proper sequential order. Remember to change each "X" in each [fltsim.X] to the next number in line among your C172SP repaints. Then click 'file', then click 'save', of course.

3.) Have a beautiful and/or beautiful flight!

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.
  2. Copy aircraft files into SimObjects

    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.
