Freeware C-172 for Prepar3D v4?

[felan09 6]

Hi all,
on my last V4 installation I had a C-172 installed, but no idea where it came from. During the last days I did an fresh install of the sim but no C-172 this time.
Any ideas where that plane came from :)? It was the plane that Markus Rust was using on his flight to Moscow, at least there was his picture in the VC.
Maybe the C-172 can be ported over from FSX?
Many thx in advance

You can just copy the FSX C-172 over.

thx for your reply! Do I need any special file(s) from the FSX effect or sound-folder?

Nope, it just works.

Do all Microsoft stock aircraft in FSX work in P3Dv4?

Unfortunality it doesn't work for me. A few gauges (e.g. Speedometer) are missing in both, the VC and the 2D-cockpit. I've copied over the Cessna172.dll from FSX to P3D. Guess this was my fault.....and that I didn't make a backup from the orignal file. Any ideas how to get that file back without installing the entire sim again

Problem solved..with the help a very kind person the plane is working now:)

I love brain teasers. One must conjure up his or her own answer as to how something was solved...life can be strange.
