Cessna 195 Businessliner for X-Plane

The Cessna 195 was one of the flagship names of commercial airplanes, right after the Second World War. Part of what many believe was the “golden age” of aircraft and aviation improvements in general, with some people believing that we have hit some plateaus in modern aircraft advancements, the Cessna 195 Businessliner is an extremely popular plane and even today still holds a strong value in the market for collectors, should you be lucky to find one of the 1,180 units actually created!

This model for X-Plane is a very close representation of the real-life model, with key attention to detail paid in the design and the actual performance and specifications of the plane. It’s imperative that when you fly a plane in a simulator that it’s as close to the real thing as possible and this does just that. With in-depth research carried out on the plane and how it ran in the air to the sounds it made, this is as close to the Businessliner as you can get in a virtual environment.

Classic aircraft are a rare treat for simulation users as they provide with far less extra technology to run with, and instead with just the basics to get in line with – but the catch is you need to actually know how to fly the thing in the first place! This collection comes with a list of accessible documents that can make it much easier to actually understand how the plane works and how you can get the most out of it in the simulator experience.

About The Cessna 195 Businessliner

A hugely important part of the post-Second World War airline boom, as people started to see the incredible strides we made in automobiles happen with planes; this five-seater aircraft used just one engine but was able to carry people huge distances at a fair speed. With a cantilever wing and a flat sprung steel landing gear this is one of the most “basic” planes you will find out there, but it’s vintage look & feel makes it perfect for those who are too used to the modern flight experience.

One of the main attraction of the plane to buyers and viewers was it’s incredible attention to detail. The designs on the exterior of the plane, matched with the quality of the design of the cockpit, made it one of the early planes on the market to really carry a significant style rather than just substance. From the beautiful leather seating inside for the passengers to the Certificate of Airworthiness in the top corner of the cockpit, this was one of the first “luxury” style planes and even today it still offers a fair challenge to many of the big-name aircrafts in terms of overall coolness.

It’s a hugely popular product on auctions and bids as it’s got a hugely vintage quality, and with just under 1,200 in creation there’s no surprise to see that today they can go for massive prices to aviation collectors.

Key Features

• Huge amounts of time and effort has gone into the creation of the textures of the Cessna 195. Alabeo are renowned for their control of the X-Plane engine and have made sure that the game really produces the finest quality of HD textures possible. It pushes the game to the very limits, but even on lower graphical settings the quality of the Cessna can put vanilla models to shame

• Realistic graphical additions have been included like window scratches & blade shines when you are in the air and the rotors are going at full-speed. These little touches make all the difference and really make the plane stand out when compared with vanilla models included in the game. The gauges in the cockpit even have reflections on them – if you want to see a genuine attempt to re-create a real life cockpit of a Cessna 195 then this is the best attempt out there for X-Plane

• A modernized version of the cockpit to give you access to some more modern representations, as any remakes or remodels of a Cessna today would have – you won’t get everything you would in a modern plane, but you’ll get plenty of help from these extras that will make it feel more like a rational experience

• Authentic documentation provided that can make your life much easier if you have no experience of flying a Cessna before. It’s very different to a modern aircraft so if you are struggling to make the plane hit the right notes for you just consult these guides to get the full picture on why the Cessna operates as it does

• A volumetric side-view prop effect has been used so that you can get the best possible view from your plane.
