[UPDATE] Cessna 172SP Skyhawk AS1000 improvement mod (freeware) | Bagolu

I’m happy to present you this mod over the Asobo’s Cessna 172SP Skyhawk AS1000

It’s an improvement of the default Skyhawk AS1000 from Asobo (one of the default planes). Interior animations have been made from the static model, custom objects have been added.

When installing this mod, it replaces the default Skyhawk AS1000 (no new plane in the hangar).

The mod includes :

  • an in-game short manual (help icon on the panel)
  • state saving (all buttons, levers, options…)

With this mod you will be able to :

  • Open/close doors, windows
  • Move sun visors

This mod is also all about customization of your plane so you can use (or not) all of the optional settings :

  • Add/remove wheel fairings
  • Add/remove wheel chocks, tie-downs, covers
  • Show/hide pilot, copilot, passengers
  • Choose seats configuration
  • Show/hide different cargo options
  • Use a checklist card (readable, no link to the plane checklist system)
  • Use a flip checklist box
  • Display a moving map on a cardboard on the yoke
  • Use a tablet

All details of theses options are on the project page on fs.to

Feel free to discuss the mod in this topic : https://forums.flightsimulator.com/t/cessna-172sp-skyhawk-as1000-improvement-mod

I hope you’ll enjoy this mod and take pleasure in your future flights !
Happy skyhawking !
