AvSim's server seems to be having "issues" again at the moment. But definitely looking forward to this one!

FS2004 Lockheed L-1049 Super G Constellation. First flown in December 1954, the "Super G" was the most successful and prestigious civil variant of Lockheed's Super Constellation series. It could carry up to 99 passengers, and optional wing-tip tanks holding 600 gallons each enabled it to comfortably fly the popular long-distance routes. Included in the package are four models representing aircraft with and without radar noses and tip tanks. Model, VC, and texture basics by Manfred Jahn. Panels, gauges, and animations by Hansjoerg Naegele. Flight dynamics by Luis Pallas. Wing view angles by Bill Tyne and Andreas Trapp. Lights and exhaust effects by Roland Berger. Checklist and documentation by Volker Boehme. Flight test and handling research by Stefan Werner.[/SIZE]

Argh.
Hard to reject this proposal, isn't it? :jump:

I'll add it into the pattern, now that I have the TCA logos in stock and with the help of your "lining remarks".

Should be "number four for landing":

First will be the TCA Dakota,
second the TVCG PolOtter (delayed, but not forgotten),
third this one which Javis just bugged into my ear...: :icon_lol:

Sorry to wander off topic,

BUT, can someone maybe tell me why I need to get my post approved ? and also why that that must take hours to get a post visible here ?

I'm mostly used to make a post and than be able to see it pretty much directly, what am I missing ?
 
Hate to see you guys having all the fun !! :banghead:

WÈÈÈÈÈÈHHHHHH!!!! I want to do a Connie repaint too!!!!:crybaby::crybaby::crybaby::violent:

Fat chance... stuck here between Sabres, B-25's and Turkeys...... sigh, life sucks...:mix-smi: :d

Nice work, Tim ! :applause:

Downloading the G now, thanks for the HU and link, guys! :ernae:

cheers,
Jan

A couple of "minor" issues I found on a 1700 mile 'test hop' yesterday:

The FE panel defaults to opening as a full window covering your VC but it can be dragged to a smaller size to allow you to see the approaching ground :icon_lol:

When you close the FE panel while in the VC it automatically opens the "Radio" panel (but it's only the secondary radios).

Hint: read up on the fuel management system! I didn't blow an engine because I tried to be good and gentle, but I DID have a fuel supply issue (see below)

If you need to feather an engine thru the FE panel you may find you have to open the Lower FE Panel which then covers (as default) the engine control levers. (How do I know?? that pesky double engine failure while in cruise, on Otto, as the crew was having lunch showed me a lot of surprises:kilroy:)

If you load the World Wide Airlines repaint (ww1049g.zip) it will take a bit of shuffling to get it all set up and it appears (at least on my sim) with blurries on the fuselage textures...have to cycle thru the views to get it to pop in sharp and then it looks great! I've emailed Garry Harper to inquire about it.
Update: Garry has released a revised set of textures .. on FlightSim today

Sound: I aliased mine to the Breitling Connie sound set but others are out there.. I just like that particular one.
-- "squeaky brakes" don't seem as loud as the Starliner but that might might just be my ears after 5 hrs of Turbo-Compound abuse :icon_lol:

As I said, small issues.. and to be back in a Connie on a 5 hr cross-country was a treat:icon29:

Now comes the review of my Connie references to find all the ones that need to be painted (so far I've found about 9 candidates outside the obvious ones that are worthy) :mixedsmi:
