Skin for Fs2002 default Cessna Skylane 182S - West Air
By Yannis Gakis (Fs-Icarus Crew)

A few words about this one.....came across a picture of a Cessna 172 paint scheme on the net and followed the link to find myself at www.westairaviation.com ...turns out that West Air is a flight training operation and these are their new fleet colours. Very nice!
Enjoy the skin and if you are in the proximity of West Air you might want to consider an opportunity to seat behind the controls of one of those pretty Cessnas for real ;)

....................................
To Install:

1) Locate your c182 aircraft folder

2) Make a dublicate copy of any texture folder and rename it to --------> Texture.west

3) Unzip the skin.

4) Copy and paste, c182_t.bmp and c182_c.bmp into your new Texture.west folder.

5) When asked to overwrite, click OK.

6) Open the aircraft.cfg file with notepad.

4) Notice the structure of the first couple of paragraphs. Each of them represents a paint already present. What you need to do is find the end and copy paste the paragraph below. Than edit the lines marked here with arrows as so, where X the next number in sequence indicating the number of repaints already installed. The rest is ok but double check anyhow....

description=When Cessna saw how well their Model 180 was selling, they looked for a way to make it an even bigger success\s the answer was the Model 182. The Cessna 182 Skylane feels and acts like a heavier, more powerful version of its sibling, the 172 Skyhawk. The airplane is a workhorse and a stable platform for flying on instruments. Even with a full tank, the 182 carries a family-size useful load and performs admirably as an aerial sport utility vehicle.


Thats it. Save the aicraft.CFG and go fly!
