Lockheed L-749 Constellation

Postby Fly2e » Fri Jan 15, 2010 8:48 am


Lockheed L-749 Constellation, Pan American Airways on approach...
Dimensionally identical to the first-generation Constellation (L-049), the post-war 749 had more powerful engines, additional fuel tanks, strengthened landing gear, and much improved performance. Equally good for shuttle hops and long-range flights, L-749 Connies entered service with major 1950s carriers such as Eastern, TWA, B.O.A.C., Air France, KLM, Quantas, and many others. Another customer was the Air Force, which placed an order for ten aircraft (designated C-121A) in 1948.

If God intended aircraft engines to have horizontally opposed engines, Pratt and Whitney would have made them that way.

Wow! Don't know what to say Dave. I'll just give this set five stars.
