Nice, a swingtail cargo model?

Pardon me, I know they were not common,just curious.long ago they were a sight and sound starting with smokey coughs and quiet taxiing to a deep loud rumbling purr at takeoff speed. A real bit of history for these birds.

Future expansion pack. Just found it at Just Flight...coming soon. I had a few flights in a VR-52 C-118 out of Willow Grove in the seventies, so I will definitely get this pack.
 
Was going to do a cockpit for this bird but the stock one is so nice I couldn't find anything to change. Great frame rates and flys like a big heavy plane, just what I like.

Here is PanAm leaving some far island in the Carribean as the sun sets.

Please remember that Ian is using an early beta. This has all been rectified in the final versions.

Matt, that scenery looks very much like ORBX NZSI.

Damn, gonna be a tough choice on which one to buy....they both look pretty good, though seems as though VLC offers more for the money, covering both islands.

Still gonna do some research.

The scenery is NZSI , the scenery area is photo real over- lay,d onto it having ORBX fill in the gap's , works well but requires builds in both scenery,s the thing is was ideal to test a DC-6 in a valley .. oh boy going to love this when its done .. sorta your Southern H to the Carribean and its Island strips .
 
Before I head over to the JF support forums, has anybody been able to engage the prop reverse? Took a short hop after install and was surprised to get no reversers on landing, the Martin bar is there and moves when you pull the throttles past 0 but nothing happens.

Although I have bought/installed this, I have not looked at it yet. Was hoping the C-118 paint was included, but oh well. I hope it is released soon!

Exteriors are ok but that screenshot of the vc has helped me decide to wait for the 'other' DC-6, currently in development.
 
I have to concede I'm not the best screenshot taker in the business but the office works well for me and no sudden crash and burns as once the auto pilot is engaged there's time to adjust mixture and prop pitch.
 
Have they put glass in the windscreens and cabin windows - there seems to be no refections at all in the external screenshots.
