| Documented highlights | The Skywagon’s Marketplace releaseMicrosoft’s Famous Flyer 11 announcement identifies the Cessna 185F for both Microsoft Flight Simulator and Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024. At that announcement, it was offered free to MSFS 2024 owners and sold separately in the earlier simulator’s Marketplace. The announcement establishes that release arrangement; present entitlement and installation are shown by the in-sim Marketplace. | The original MSFS 2020 releaseMicrosoft explicitly offers the 185F in both simulator generations. The March 2025 release distinguishes a paid MSFS 2020 Marketplace aircraft from the free aircraft offered to MSFS 2024 owners. |
