I'd a fair whack of points available so the end price was just over £11. To celebrate, I bought one of the expansion packs too (£9 a shot) 
A gentle descent into EHAM from EGPK
I quite like the DC6 and the model is fun to fly but there are errors and the soundset isn't what you'd call 'to die for'
The marketed as the DC6B and comes with a host of liveries including the 2011 British Eagle repaint.. G-APSA. Unfortunately, APSA is a DC6A but I can tolerate that. A quick shuftie under the wings shows none of the models have either over or underwing registrations. A bit shoddy really.. who the hell checks these things The BU paint above comes as part of the cargo expansion. Can't remember what the reg is supposed to be but it's not the one in the aircraft.cfg.. N37568. You gotta laugh As with the pax versions.. no wing registrations on the cargo models either.I did the flight above using FSCommander which has a default DC6 setting. It suggested I take around 14000lbs for the trip so I did.. and landed with well over 10K lbs onboard.. maybe over 12k, can't remember now but whatever.. I was either being very easy on the levers, the model runs too lean or FSC is further out than a Lib-Dem backbencher
Everything else you see there is default FSX. I actually managed the flight without an OOM though it has to be said.. Scotland is one of the few places I can fly from to achieve this.If ever Britsim is clawed back from the Russians.. I may see if Gary Jones did any suitable DC6 sounds. I think the ones used on the model were knicked off the JF/AH Connie and are less than pleasing
All in all.. not bad really. I wouldn't recommend you all go dashing out to get it unless you really want one though.. not unless you have a shed load of points making it cheap as chips
