This is a modification to the MSFS 2020 default Asobo C172SP Classic Floats aircraft, which is the seaplane variant of the Classic C172SP. The mod does not change the standard or ski variants.
This mod is primarily aimed at improving the overall flight dynamics and water performance of this aircraft, providing a more realistic flying experience that is much closer to the actual aircraft. Multiple changes have been made to the engine and flight model parameters, the flotation contact points, and the aircraft weight and balance, which are all detailed in the Change Log file included under the Documentation folder. A full PDF copy of the aircraft POH, and some helpful tips for flying this aircraft are also included under the Documentation folder.
This mod is easily installed by simply unzipping the download file and copying the mge-asobo-aircraft-c172sp-classic-floats folder to the MSFS Community folder. It will then replace the existing default C172SP Floats aircraft in the MSFS aircraft selection screen, and will also continue to utilize any existing aircraft Liveries. To uninstall the mod and return to using the MSFS default aircraft, simply remove it from the Community folder. This aircraft and this mod are only for the MSFS Deluxe Edition and Premium Deluxe Edition.

Flying this mod right now as I type this, and it is extremely well done. Have made several take-offs, landings and egress to and from land to water. All are vastly improved and much more realistic than the stock version. Congrats on your excellent work!
