Yes Indeed , this from the same JustFlight , i have the base and two other packs one with the long nose and with tip tanks plus the early warning series. Just recent there has be Connie cockpit upgrade and i have but slowly redoing Pegasus and Phoenix , the two regulars during the 60s and early 70s for Operation Deep Freeze .

Thats right, i remember now your deep freeze paints.........why redoing?, they looked great. mentioned it before, but i remember standing behind the fence and watching the Connies start up....just beautiful, those huge props and all the smoke.....and i know you dont remember Ian, but the Neptunes were there as well.....and the first Globemasters.....Great days.

You start listing many off those , not sure if you recall the old resturant called 'BIG TEX' on the main south road heading South just past the gates of Wigram , the very typical American cowboy and lasso in bright Vegas type lights .. The redoing is for the JUSTFLIGHT model , other was for the 2004 SCFA Constellation .. and course photo texture engines was for this but still needed to apply -

The Screen above , that was dated almost 20 months back , course few things got in the way but this dose not show any work on Pegasus in the nose area yet .

Manfred did a brilliant job on every possible model , this Starliner N7316C ( c/n 1018) served Alaska Airlines 1962-1968 was a ex TWA Star of the Tigris . They really are an amazing type .

It flew daily between Anchorage (PANC) and Kotzebue (PAOT) with landings at McGrath (PAMC) and Nome (PAOM). At McGrath, our FAA housing was a mere 500 ft from runway centerline so we knew when the Connie arrived. Each time the brakes were used, we all squealed.
