September 5, 200817 yr Sorry if this has already been mentioned, but I've only just seen it on the Carenado Screenshots pagehttp://www.carenado.com/ecommerce/incomings.php3Frog Intel I7-4770 3.4Ghz 16 Gb RAM nVidia GTX770 2Gb Windows 8.1 64 bit P3D 4.4/3.4 FSX SE
September 5, 200817 yr Holy smokes....first the 152, now a 172. Pretty soon I'll have a hanger full of all the Carenado single props in the 100 series.Now, if they would only include a 180 Skywagon ;)
September 5, 200817 yr They need to do a twin.Any twin.Hasnt Realair been working on one for about 3 years now.Hey Carenado.Do a twin.:-bigangel
September 5, 200817 yr RealAir is working on the Duke.For Twins, I just love my Eaglesoft Twin Comanche...pretty tough to beat that one.

September 5, 200817 yr Alright Bill, is that a hint? Ron ain't gonna be happy :D...getting ready to take the new and improved FSX (non-turbo)SR22 up for for its maiden spin in a few minutes ;)
September 6, 200817 yr If you have ActiveSky plan a flight from Ksav "Savannah" to Kmyr "Myryle Beach.Pretty interesting weather going on here.Top of your head will be sore when you get there!
September 6, 200817 yr Interesting enough...and I'm not kidding...I just planned, and am going from KDOV (where I landed my B377) down to KEWN (Craven Regional). Not too far from Myrle Beach.I forgot all about the weather, and yes, I do use ASX.....Gotta fly ;)
September 6, 200817 yr The preview screenshots read "full FSX DirectX10 certified". Certified in what way? And by whom?I'm a past (satisfied) user of Carenado planes, but I just wonder if the above is marketing hype or what?

And by whom?>>I'm a past (satisfied) user of Carenado planes, but I just>wonder if the above is marketing hype or what?It just means that they are full FSX models and will work with DX10 with all the special effects. It's nothing many other developers haven't done for some time now. It just took a while for Carenado to jump on the bandwagon. Now that they are on, we will get a bunch more nice GA aircraft :D I'm still waiting for my dear 182Q to be converted ;)The 172 and 152 look great too. Expect a lot of paints for them from me (if they aren't mapped stupidly like the 206 was). I still don't understand what was going through their heads when they mapped the 206 textures. They make no sense... by far the weirdest of any payware plane I've seen. Tired of Streetlights everywhere? Try MSFS DarkStreets today!
September 6, 200817 yr Is it just me, or does the pilot in the Carenado 172N looks a little small? Ark -------------------------- I9 9900K @ 5ghz / 32GB G.Skill (Samsung B) / Aorus Master Mobo / EVGA GTX 2080Ti FTW 3
September 6, 200817 yr This made my day. I've been expressing my hope they'd do an old style 172 someday. And lookie here :-jumpy Cheers, Bert AMD Ryzen 5900X, 32 GB RAM, RTX 3080 Ti, Windows 11 Home 64 bit, MSFS 2024
September 6, 200817 yr I don't understand why no one would build a 180HP 172SP.We already have a 172 with the 160HP from F1.Manny Manny Beta tester for SIMStarter
September 6, 200817 yr I'm waiting for the Piper Tomahawk to be upgraded to FSX status...The Just Flight offering was ok for FS2004 but poor fps on their FSX updated model...As for the 180HP 172SP, should be easy to upgrade here via the aircraft.cfg or .air files ;) Dean MountfordUltimate VFR
