Hi Chris
The 1649 was the Starliner with a new high aspect ratio wing.
Only bought by Air France TWA and Lufthansa
The turbo prop was an experimental and was on a Super Contellation.
There was no production version with turbo props
The later marks of L-1049 had turbo compounds as did the DC 7C

Hello BT
FS2004 Lockheed Super Constellation
already out, i have it
the file name is "sconnie" or "klm l-1049 super constellation" I DL it from no Nodes
but i think the fsdzl049a_v1 is a better crafted design
texture wise. I long still for a VC but the Panel was done well enough that I
don't really Miss the VC, ................to much
still she's a beaut to fly nice engine sounds too.
I wasn't aware that the designer, John, wasn't well
I certainly wish all the best to him

Glad you have something you are happy with.
The TWA and Pan Am are great too and there is I think and earlier BOAC.....infact I am sure I had it before my last upgrade....the livery with the lighter blue and white pinstripes that didn't last.
But a lot of liveries availiable and all at the right price...
Garry
That earlier BOAC livery.
The FSDZigns Connie is simply gorgeous!

Yeah Thats the one
For some reason I've not got that paint since I reloaded :roll:
Pwerhaps My backup was not as up to date as I thought :think: :sad:
Never mind I will have a re downloding session sometime :dance:

Hi Airboatr,
I've got that Super Connie and it is indeed very nice, but it's not hugely detailed as it's a Mike Stone model.
