Beschreibung
This plane is built with MSFS2020 SDK and is a 2020 native plane.
It is currently mostly compatible with MSFS2024 as a legacy port, that is to say, without fancy new 2024 features.
There's a discussion thread on MSFS forums for this mod.
Cessna 172 M you said ?
The Cessna 172M built from 1973 to 1976 is a classic Skyhawk known for simplicity, light handling, and excellent reliability. It uses a 150-hp Lycoming O-320-E2D engine, cruises around 105–110 knots, and has a maximum gross weight of about 2,300 lb. The M model is especially popular with flight schools thanks to its forgiving flight characteristics, straightforward systems, and strong reputation for durability.
Community project
This mod started as a simple "what if..." in an open discussion in the MSFS forums.
Given the keen interest shown by many fans of the 172M and 172N, the project eventually took shape, thanks to numerous contributions (valuable information, references, photos) from everyone involved.
I received a lot of help for the flight model : kudos to Canadian Captain Moustache !
Overall, developing this module and continuously improving it as a community has been a very rewarding experience.

CREDITS
A lot of the instruments were taken from Sal1800’s devkit on github. Opensource resources are not a common thing on MSFS, hats off to him !
Liveries thanks to Ann0v (for the 1st one)
I can’t name all the people without being sure not to forget ones : A BIG THANK YOU to all of you who are contributing to this project in your own way !

Is there a possibility for a model without dynamic registration on the wings and rear?

Even the more recent 172N have no lite in all the references that I got.
You can use your flashlight if it's really hard to see, but I find red flood at maximum is way too powerful to be used
