Released in 1956, the Cessna Skyhawk 172SP has become a major part of the Cessna companies' success and reputation. Fully developed for use with FSX and P3D by Carenado, this helps to bring an old classic to life in a way that's rarely been done before. Arguably the most successful aircraft in history thanks to the fact it is still in production today, more than 60 years since it first was released.
With over 44,000 delivered, this aircraft is one that offers a revealing insight into what made Cessna so special - and still makes them so. If you want to see just what makes the Cessna Skyhawk 172SP come to life, though, this package is a fine place to start.
With a full take on the aircraft which is fully FSX and P3D v2-4 compatible, this is a universally applied solution for those who want more value for their money. The G1000 here comes with a full Navigraph, with each one updateable to make sure you are always as close to up-to-date as you can be.
The new Synthetic Vision System, powered via WebSimConnect (1 year's access provided with purchase), offers a far improved way for handling general aircraft management and flight control, too. Add in the option to start in both Cold and Dark function, and you can easily use this to help transform how you begin every flight.
New take-off run and landing real rolling movement effects make every second spent in the cockpit tenser and more immersive. Alongside the dynamic propeller shines, too, the whole aircraft just feels more alive and energetic than ever before. Want to change/hide the pilots in the cockpit? You can do so with the single flick of a switch, too!

After installing C172 G1000 Having some issues with computer freezing, screen lag loss of 2nd screen. When using standard C172 g1000 that came with MS FSIM there is not issue. Will need to contact tech support. Some switches work on PFD but don't work on MFD.
