Thank you for selecting this item. I hope you enjoy the photographically realistic depiction of this aircraft interior as much as I do. It can be used with the Cessna 195 aircraft by Mike Stone, file name: sc195.zip. This aircraft is known to be available at www.simviation.com, and at Mr. Stone's website: www.pmstone.com. Joe Binka of the Hedgehopper Design Group has graciously granted permission for a re-release of the excellent "Shakey_Jake" Cessna without the virtual cockpit. The views will then also work with this very popular aircraft. It sould be available soon.
These internal photos of an actual Cessna 195 have been modified for use within Microsoft Flight Simulator 2004. They were designed for use with the freeware panel - 195phpnl.zip - and are photos of the same aircraft represented by the freeware photo-real panel, released in May, 2004.
Happy simming!
Will

A note about aircraft with virtual cockpits -
Many simulator aircraft designers have created virtual cockpits with exceptional visual appeal and functionality, exhibiting skill, craftsmanship, and artistry to be greatly admired. However, installing photo-real views usually requires a simulator aircraft model with no virtual cockpit (vc). This is because the simulation displays the virtual cockpit views in the normal cockpit mode, as well as in the virtual cockpit mode, and the vc views will be displayed simultaneously with any installed Photo views from the Panel folder. Unlike the panel, control of the virtual cockpit display is built within the aircraft's MDL file, located within the aircraft's Model folder. This file is the coded information for displaying the entire aircraft within the simulation.
If you are using an aircraft with a virtual cockpit, and for your personal use, wish to have the aircraft with no virtual cockpit, it is recommended that you contact the original author of that aircraft. The original author of the aircraft can produce a version of the MDL without the virtual cockpit.
The MDL file also can be easily modified to 'switch off' the display of the virtual cockpit, for private individual use, by those with some knowledge of the program coding used in the MDL file, and ability to use an appropriate editing tool.
The MDL file is the intellectual property of the aircraft's author. Because I, and www.cyberbia.us respect intellectual property rights, and declared copyrights, modified MDL files with the virtual cockpit switched off will not be included with Photo-real view packages.
Some aircraft authors who create aircraft models with virtual cockpits, also routinely produce a "no vc" version of the same aircraft. Perhaps in the future, more aircraft modelers could routinely extend this courtesy to the many simmers who enjoy the option of photo-real views. Perhaps Microsoft could also evolve the design of aircraft models to give the individual user control of a virtual cockpit 'switch' within the simulation, or so that the normal cockpit mode and virtual cockpit mode are not tied together, enabling a choice of views between the virtual and the photo-real. If you agree with these ideas, and would like your wish to be known to aircraft designers, it is recommended that you express your support in the many simulator forums available on the world wide web.
