NZFF

It marks the peak and end of piston engine airliners in the 1950s. It's still a classic "watch store." This is the freighter version with a reinforced cabin floor and few windows. She still got a GPS. The model comes from PMDG. It is comparatively rarely seen on the forums. What a pity. PMDG did a good job with this plane. It flies well, is a bit sluggish as to be expected and requires some attention when flying. However, after a little practice, it can be flown.

nice shots, always good to see the DC-6

GREAT GREAT GREAT SCREEENSHOTS!!

Fabulous. Gotta love 4 radials !!

More is better

In those times, 4 engines were required to cross large areas of water. Today the twin-engines are allowed. But let's not forget that the Super Constellation was called "the most beautiful tri-engine in the world." The over-engineered piston engines were not that reliable. I liked to fly the big machines, also with the jets, Boeing 707, DC 8, Convair 880/990, or the trijets like the L 1011 Tristar, the DC 10/MD 11. But they are gone. or about to be like the 747, The Airbus A 380 and the 340.
