Alright. So, I have been reading up on the new Cessna 162 SkyCatcher, I really like the plane, given the choice, I would love to train in one, so I thought, why not see if there is one for FSX? Sure enough,I found one by Flight 1, and Abacus. The Abacus model looked funny to me, so I went with Flight1, I don't know if there are others, but if Carenado makes one, I'm getting it too.  Grin This plane has became one of my new favorite light planes.

Ya..I was just looking at the model, read a review and that just told me NO. The model isn't accurate...and the review said it uses default 172 sounds...how bad is that? And after the failure of the 787....well..that explains itself. lol

Yeah, they made me spend 5 minutes on the ground just cycling the controls to make sure that I got used to going left to right instead of turning the yoke.  I don't like it too much though because its really hard to determine the null zone when your on takeoff. Smiley
