Stephen Posted March 8 Report Share Posted March 8 NEWS! - Upgraded to X-Plane 12 : Piper PA-28-180 Cherokee C - XP12/XP11 by AeroSphere Simulations The Piper PA-28-180 Cherokee C by AeroSphere has been upgraded to X-Plane 12, the updated X-Plane 11 version is also part of the package. AeroSphere’s Piper PA-28-180 Cherokee C was designed after the 1960’s model with the square-cut windows and the iconic “Hershey Bar” wing. This specific model, also known as the “C” variant has a four cylinder carbureted Lycoming O-360 that produces 180HP and is equipped with a two bladed, fixed pitch propeller. The Cherokee 180 C featured “push-pull” style throttle and mixture controls instead of the throttle quadrant levers that Piper introduced in 1968. The panel and interior were designed after the same era with updated avionics such as the autopilot and Garmin GPS system that is commonplace among Pipers. Features: Updated for X-Plane 12: Rain effects, new aircraft lighting, and aircraft handling etc… (Still includes X-Plane 11 version, free upgrade to XP12) 4 HD (4096 x 4096) liveries with a plain white texture that can be used for custom paint schemes.

Toggle button to remove/display yoke Compatible with HDR and normal lighting effects Many textures taken from the actual aircraft Virtual Reality friendly and includes the click regions and hotspots required for VR gameplay. FMOD sounds The Piper Cherokee is what started the main line of Piper aircraft today, and many of the Piper aircraft trace their roots back to the original Cherokee production aircraft. The original Cherokee was produced with three different horsepower models (150, 160, and 180) thus the “180” denoting which model it is. The max gross of the aircraft changed based on the engine and also the climb rate and cruise speeds increased based on the power output. The 180 horsepower variant had an empty weight with an autopilot at 1270lbs. and a gross weight at 2400lbs. resulting in a useful load of 1130lbs. mages and video are courtesy of AeroSphere Simulations Design by AeroSphere Simulations _____________________________________ Yes! - Piper PA-28-180 Cherokee C XP12/XP11 by AeroSphere Simulations is NOW available from the X-Plane.Org Store here : Piper PA-28-180 Cherokee C Price is Currently US$29.95 Requirements X-Plane 12 or X-Plane 11 Windows, Mac or Linux 8 GB+ VRAM Recommended Download Size: 180 MB Current Version : XP12 1.0 (March 5th 2024) ___________________________ NEWS! by Stephen Dutton 8th March 2024 Copyright©2024: X-Plane Reviews (Disclaimer.
