Good to hear- they're a good bunch.

TAKE YOUR TIME- read the INTRO and some of the Flight Manual while you are relaxing and then, together with your prior experience, RELY on the AFE. That should have you up and running.

You would not believe the amount of persons who installed MSFS and tried the DC-6 as their first addon. Amazing.

She is an incredible simulation of a glorious age in flight.

Marcel, there are different external model variations. For instance, the DC-6B model that the included 'United' paint scheme and some of the other airliner paint schemes use has lots of windows.

 
John is right, but all the VC-118A are using cargo door compartments, so I decided to use DC-6A with fake windows like the real one had. Works in most cases nice.

I was flying this thing in/around a thunderstorm today, and it felt like trying to control a barge in rough seas. I just love the way it 'feels' in the air - it seems very natural/realistic to how it should feel with amount of surface area and weight. I was almost blown into the side of a mountain, which was a bit scary too - it takes quite a bit of airspace to get this thing turned around.







 
It's Father's Day, so I'm going to pull out my Dad's old RCAF log books and duplicate a flight he took in the North Star ( DC-6) in 1952 up to Frobisher Bay to service an injured Lancaster. Happy Father's Day dads!
 
Beautiful screens in here guys. I feel like MSFS has just got a big piece of what was missing with this addon. Took her from Lelystadt for a few passes over the Eau Rouge at the Spa Francorchamps race track and finally to Aachen Mastricht which is the closest airport to my real place where she can fit (except for Geilenkirchen AB). I understand the Localizer option of the Gyropilot now, still have issues with the speed governors. Well, glad to still have things to wonder about.
 
Another very enjoyable flight around the Twin Cities this evening. #2 wasn't performing as well as the other three, so I did some preventative maintenance after this flight.











 
As usual....PMDG delivers top quality. BEST flying airplane to date in MSFS, in my experience. Interesting that there are no C-118 paints like were provided in the P3D version.

Still...a WONDERFUL machine. I managed to get it off the ground, around the pattern, and back down in one piece...but I need to read the manual before I try more.

Now....if we can just get the Aeroplane Heaven C-47/DC-3 and Flight Replicas DC-4/C-54 released for MSFS...we'll be in classic prop liner heaven!
