My Free Carenado Cessna and Lukla Airport VNLK Legal Freeware FS2004
January 20, 2009
Don’t have the payware stuff? I found a nice freeware Cessna 152 from Carenado, and Lukla Airport VNLK freeware scenery and had a great time at one of the world’s most challenging airports located in Nepal.
The Cessna 152 is originally for FS2000 and FS2002 and was downloaded from Carenado, and the Lukla V3 scenery is for FS2002, downloaded from Avsim, and they both work nicely in FS2004. I added the autopilot and DME to the Cessna panel.
Nice comments and ratings for my efforts to make the video and share this info are welcome.
