Carenado 182RG

Looks like she’s gotten a repaint since I last saw her.

Was hoping this was coming in this week’s releases. Hopefully next week now.

Always takes a few weeks from the first announcement. It’s not even on their ‘Incoming’ page on their site yet - Incoming – Carenado

Wow beautyful, THE classic! This Cessna RG with the exact deep dark-red leather interior was in Flight Simulator 2000 (or 2002 not sure) before even 3D cockpits were invented and with fixed bitmap scenes showing a fixed part of the interior.

An all time classic…

I’m just curious how long it will take this time from the announcement to the release :wink:
Important that our mouths are already watering now
:beers:

There is a fine line between ‘Yes, yes, yes’ and ‘OK I’m bored of waiting now’. The Just Flight Tomahawk is a perfect example of this. I was so excited when it was announced, now I don’t even want it any more. Hopefully this one is just a few short Thursday’s away :slightly_smiling_face:

Still a day one purchase for me … well, one month left until Q2 is over.

Yes: I used to own a real life T210 and would really like that! Also have some hours in a C172RG, which I thought was really a so-so aircraft. So, while the 182RG looks nice, for now I will pass on this and wait for a 210

The wait goes on for 21 years now… (I have read this Cessna RG was in Flight Simulator 2002 not 2000 like I first thought, so it was only 21 years of waiting).
This is me, I have already given up getting a better and more exciting version than the 2002 default Cessna RG in 2005… :smiley:

These printers were awesome and absolute MUST-HAVE in 1995 - 2004.
Computers without a printer (even with nothing to print. Ever! Until the ink jets completely dried up.) and without several installed flight sims with 300 page instruction booklets everywhere on the desk were no real computers back then :smiley:

And soon we get this legendary Cessna RG from this era. A strange yet positive feeling. I hope it comes with a 300 page airplane manual as PDF file.

This was EXACTLY my response to that comment. With floats please…

But the Skywagon does not have this sharp-looking wine red leather interior :smiley:

Tell that to the people waiting for the A2A Comanche 250 :joy:

Oh that’s different, that’s like a mythical creature I’ll only believe is real when I see it with my own eyes.

Soon there will be more screenshots. Soon…
Yetis are very common in the Himalaya region and they prefer to stay above 3000 meters that´s why they are a rare sight. But I am sure they exist even if no Yeti emoticon can be found in this forum.
The RG version maybe comes epuipped with a turbocharger and can go higher than common piston planes - so chances are seeing a Yeti in it´s native mountain terrain habitat when flying the RG there.

edit: I have checked the screenshots of the cockpit instruments, no turbocharger. Still a Yeti encounter might happen. Never give up the search for cryptids :wink:
