New C185 pics from Carenado!

Take a good look at the vertical stab of 97L.

On the port side the lettering is reversed. I am hoping that Carenado will fix that and make two separate textures.

Looks good, especially the bare-metal one. But VC is same ol same ol. Once you've seen one Carenado VC, you've seen them all.:mixedsmi:

Come on Carenado. It is 2010. STOP MIRRORING TEXTURES.

Actually I think they once said in an email to me that doing just that increases FPS somehow. I don't know the technicalities of it. Or maybe it just makes things easier for them...

Ding ding ding!!!

We have a winner!

One more texture will ABSOLUTELY NOT impact FPS. It is 2010. I can count the percentage of people using FSX on P4's with 64mb graphics cards on a single hand. One more texture will NOT make a difference anymore.
 
Can I get a cookie?

Regardless, it does look good considering all the Skywagons available for FSX ;)

That looks delicious.

I just made a post over at the avsim carenado forum (yep they have one now)
 
Look at the port and starboard images of 97L that show the vertical stabilizer. The starboard side is correct; "Cessna Skywagon".

The port sided is mirrored. There is not a valid reason for this continued practice at this point in time.

Is it the C-195 that had the big radial. Now THAT would be a nice plane to offer.

At least as far as I am concerned. :)

Yes, I would love to see one of those as well. Classic style. Pain to see out the front when taxiing. :icon_lol:

I have pictures here somewhere of a beautifully restored C-195, guy even added the wheel pants. All polished aluminum with original red striping.

Oh! A quick Google search found this pic from an Arlington, WA fly-in. Would be the right area, looks like right plane....
