• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

A2A L-049 Constellation preview

I agree - awesome video!

What was the "silver falcon" they were referring too? What aircraft is that?

Eastern flew a 'Silver Falcon Service' for want of a better explanation, rather like Pan Am's 'Clippers' and (IIRC) United's 'Mainliners', just marketing hype.
 
Speaking of Connies, I've been flying this beauty (Manfred's) the last few days between Miami and Orlando. IMHO, this is one of most attractive paint schemes ever. Had to do a few FDE tweaks for too much trim and a few other minor things but all in all a fun ride.

Just saying...the Connie imho is the most beautiful prop liner ever made. The Bristol Britannia a close second.
