FSX Green And White Cessna 172 Fix

Green-and-white Cessna 172 N2878T textures get a polished update in FSX, eliminating fuselage-side bleed-through that appears when sunlight strikes during banking. Requires the Cessna_172_N2878T repaint package, and replaces the full texture.N2878T folder to deliver cleaner shading, sharper paintwork, and more consistent exterior visuals in flight.
