I always wondered why the Connie had three vertical tails, and then it was explained to me that if it used only one, the surface area required for safe and stable flight would dictate the vertical tail to be so tall that most hangars back then wouldn't be able to accomodate it.
That would be neat if there was a camera option for something like "camera shake", then people could make some neat videos of planes screaming past, landing heavily, etc. That would be neat. But I think the Microsoft Games division is now defunct, or at least the FSX crew. :(
this guitargamery as a person is a great man,also a producer musician(guitarplayer) i saw his video here in youtube and was simply awsome, check bbuteo here in youtyube, well he always have a fsx fresh video and thats great i subscribe to keep informed!!cheers people and think about it, cuz the good is to be shown, i flow alredy with him and he was so kind to me because he sent me great scenerys, planes,he post this videos who make me feel to fly over and over lets give a chance to guitargamery
I'm not sure exactly what websites he purchases his planes from (some companies are better than others when it comes to detail). This plane in particular is probably for FS9 running in FSX.
First few seconds I would have sworn that was real. The grainy effect really looks authentic old. But I guess the colour instead of b/w gave it away :)
Great choice of music to feature this gorgeous aeroplane.
Wish there was a Connie I could park in my stable (next to the Chris Craft)---BTW, it was a DC-4 in the exterior scenes (reportedly a WWII C-54).

The Lockheed Connie is a beautiful plane, however the aircraft in The High and the Mighty was a Douglas DC-6.

Is there a good autopilot for this plane?

@labelars Um, I can't say. But, I know that my dad never uses autopilot. He prefers planes that are technologically robust, but not autonomous.

I emigrated to Canada from Trinidad in 1961. Spent 14 hours in one of those babies. A trip I will never forget. Trans Canada Airlines.

Pretty amazing stuff - I'd have thought it real if you hadn't told me. And the music! It's just like one of those old movie newsreels.

I thought that was a real airplane, That motion is so accurate. The people who make the simulators should follow your lead
