Flight Replicas Douglas DC-4/C-54/Carvair Released

Truman's VC-54 was the "Sacred Cow." Always loved that name! :wavey:

Sorry , stand corrected . When you get my age things like this start happening on a regular basis . Need to get back to the Museum of the Air Force . They opened a new hanger last year that now houses all of the Presidential aircraft . Before they were across the field on part of Wright Patterson AFB . You're right , " Sacred Cow " is quite the name .

If you have any questions, just ask! :)

you wouldn't have any wireframe maps? I'm having a hard time with the ailerons. Other than that, it is nicely laid out, not too many problems.

of course, I could also make the triangles smaller so they don't touch the ailerons...
 
Looks fantastic thus far. A lot of potential subjects here as virtually every post-WW2 airline had DC-4's/C-54's on their books at some point.
As always, enjoy all the efforts put in.

You should find the wireframe maps as the very bottom-most layer of the principle wing texture (eg. NS_Wing_L.psd)

Roosevelt´s and Truman´s VC-54C, 272752, build 1946. A special C-54, nicknamed the Sacred Cow, became the first presidential aircraft. With high polish textures. Created without repaintkit. WIP.

thank you, I'll check them out tomorrow, now I need to sleep..

I found the wire frame at the bottom of the list. It is called "Background". In order for it to show you must untick the dark grey box directly above it.

MJ's C47
PMDG DC6
A2A Connie
and now Mikes DC4/Carvair

Exactly, in the space of a year we have gone so far with release of really high quality renditions of classic aeroplanes. It is a very impressive list from my humble view point. Somebody been reading my bucket list?
