Airfoillabs Cessna 172

[WR269 367]

I'm happy they're still releasing updates to this. I thought they'd stop after they announced their next product

 

Must say I am very excited for their upcoming 350...should be fantastic.

I read that it was pulled, anyone have more info on that?

[mmerelles 78]

they put it back, 1.51 now. surely they missed something and re-pachaged it.

Excited about this Cessna! I might be getting it soon.

 

I hear it's the best GA aircraft for XP10 at the moment.

How good is this one guys, really ?

 

How do the flight dynamics feel ? Ground handling under x-wind ? Does it fly by the numbers ( of a typical C172 ) ?

 

I'm tempted, but it's expensive....

Thx José!

Wow..wow..wow...!

 

I just upgraded from my v1.40, to v1.52...and I think this is the best purchased plane that I own across any system, for liveliness, handling, visuals, or, I guess, just the 'feel' of flying what must be, a real airplane.

 

It is incredible, the difference between v1.40 and now v1.52.   Massive difference ... in the handling, love the pilot and his three passengers, one man, and two women, (two couples) that can be viewed from the outside, or you click to keep them in view in in-cockpit viewing.  All animated...updated control and feature panels, etc and more etc....

 

The sounds within the cockpit, outside environment, the engine....beautifully done.

 

Man, has this plane matured....

 

 

Screamingly recommended for a Cessna 172 model...., and a major thumb's-up!

 

This plane just doesn't sit there, like a mass and lump of dough....you have to handle, and fly/manage this bird...and that applies even if you are at taxi...and all at 27-30 FPS, on average, with even complex atmospherics in play.

 

Love it!
