Classic British Flight Sim

A marvellous "short" Connie 749 with 5 textures and speedpack alternative

By the team lead by the great Manfred Jahn

on Flightsim.com, from 3 /12/ 09

relly a must for all Connie fanatics like me

Indeed and someone is working on ACE Freighters

Thanks for the HU. Looks like I will need to get a bigger aircraft hanger of all these Connies.

Don't miss it. It's beautiful!

By the way, there's a note in the installation text file that the sound is DC-3 engines, and recommends a few Constellation sound files to look for on other FS sites. I have the CalClassic L-049 Constellation, and copied that sound into the new L-749. Sounds like the real thing. It also looks great and flies great. Liveries are Eastern Air Lines, TWA, KLM, Air France, and USAF.

Art

should be nice the Ace Freighter textures but well weathered, like those in the photos

I thought the Connie was coming to the VA. Any news.

Thanks for the HU. This is a cracking bit of freeware.

Glad I did'nt buy the JF version!





Thanks to all involved.

Wow that looks fanastic!

I'll be flying that later tonight

Kind regards

John

What's lovely is that a friend of mine, Jaap de B, has done the repaint for this wonderful beast in the KLM colours of our (Aviodrome aircraft museam in the Netherlands) last still flying example in the world and it flies just like her. Found a great sound that brings the virtual experience close to reality. Just miss the virtual smells of burning oil .Nice job by Manfred Jahn and his team. And it's FREEWARE for all to enjoy.
