Post by thomasburnside »

Ive had a look around for a Super Constellation for my FS9 hanger. Theres a few out there so I just wanted to ask which one is the best.

My fave for FS9 was a model by FSDZigns with a Jan Visser panel (freeware) :)

I liked Manfred Jahn's Lockheed L-1049G Super Constellation in FS9. It will bite you if you don't fly it 'by the book' so be aware of that.

Good point about Manfreds model.. its a Super Connie, not a standard (L049) ;)

The new L-1649 (version 4.0) is the best of the bunch. Apparently Lufthansa are using it for training crews for their real L-1649 currently under restoration.
