Nice shots, awesome plane! The only thing I miss is the wingtip tank.

Thanks for pointing to that beauty,

Cheers,
Fabian

I'm not very good at the different Connie types, but I love the wingtip tanks you can see in Mitch's sig.

Cheers,
Fabian

Hi Fabian

Yep the sig is a Super Constellation this model is a Starliner

The major visual difference is a all new higher aspect ratio wing althought there were many othere differences.

Only ordered by TWA Lufthansa and Air France

A lovely model of one of my favourite propliners :)

Looking forward to see it in lufthansa colours, there livery suits this aircraft perfectly i think.

A gorgeous bird indeed and that looks like a very nice model, though I'm not too sure about the exhaust effect.

I'll check her out ... thanks for the link ;)

Garry your spot on mate, however I do prefer the Super Constellation with tip tanks and weather radar nose.  ;) The one in my sig is actually a former USAF C-121C.  :P

I wanna see other people post shots too please. :D

I downloaded it and some other constellations, but i have to say its not really my cup of tea. However it may be worth a shot or two :)
