## About This Content
Said to be the most successful training aircraft ever produced, the Cessna 172
Skyhawk first entered production in 1958, since when more than 40,000 have
been built. The ‘N’ model was introduced in 1977 and featured an upgraded
engine, with additional options such as air conditioning and larger fuel tanks
becoming available before the introduction of the model ‘P’ successor.
Developed by Carenado, the FSX: Steam Edition version of the C172N Skyhawk is
a beautifully detailed aircraft ideal for VFR flying. This pack includes four
paint schemes and two models, with and without fairings. (Fairings are
externals features which cover gaps and spaces between parts of an aircraft in
order to reduce drag).
