Hi Guys,

Quick question, is this pink(ish) Livery - Textron Aviation 'Livery 1' - for the C152 in MSFS2020 an 'official' / default livery?
I was modifying certain files and previously had completely 'pinked out' aircraft as a result of some texture missing. Example of this > Longitude in 3rd picture.

In this case it seems like an 'official' Asobo livery though?
If anyone could confirm this and ideally even post a little screenshot from their own c152 default livery selection I would appreciate that very much!

Interestingly enough, 'AI' keeps telling me that this is 100% a "missing texture issue" and this is not a livery in the sim.

Regards, Tommy

Yes, that's a correctly-displayed livery.

I don't know if it's default or not because I no longer have MSF2020. I don't remember a default pink livery, so it may be an addon sitting in your Community folder?

The 'missing texture pink' is chequered (as per your Longitude pic). The C152 is a solid pink texture.

Not a colour I'd go for personally for an aircraft 😊 but it's healthy.

Thanks for responding. I'm wondering thy Asobo put such a "girly" livery in there. It's seemingly even being mocked in some videos.
Before anyone jumps on me, no, I don't have issues with girls flying, but if I remember correctly, it's still mostly dudes simming.

Irrelevant of this pink one:
It would be really cool if there were some databases in general for (official AND third-party) releases of liveries for MSFS.
Started searching for such databases/wikis, but the closest I found so far is https://flight.fandom.com/wiki/Cessna_152. Pretty decent but somewhat out of date and not really listing 'version histories.'

If anyone knows of good a good database with detailed version history / changelog information on liveries please let me know!

Blue skies!

( No, I don't watch much TikTok but this is one of the first videos I found with this livery )

Can't see a problem with a pink livery to be fair. Pink isn't just synonymous with girls any more, as it was when I was growing up in the 80s 😄 There are some darn nice pink golf shirts out there - worn by some of the most macho fellas you'll find.

This issue is not with girls flying, more so just outdated attitudes towards what is 'girly' and what is MACHO Man. It's 2026 - do we really watch Tik Tok videos suggesting that girls would only fly a pink C152?

Well in this case consider my attitude outdated since I still think pink is a girly color and don't like dudes wearing pink 😁

Well, 'real men' can wear pink and get away with it. 😁

PS. Please don't ask me to define a 'real man' or we will go down the rabbit hole of woke doom! 😆

No, no, I get it; real men today wear pink, honor their wife's boyfriend, and are generally proud, self-declared feminists. Progressivism and all.

Jokes aside, I'm on the conservative and right-wing side of things, so for me, pink remains a girly or gay color.

Feel free to call me a terrible, outdated, closeted, and/or bigoted '[insert generic -ist or -phobe word here]' any time for that take.

I don't wear pink, but I do eat quiche. 😘
