A transporter of questionable goods - a new livery

Post by Warbirds »

You are a smuggler,,or rather, a transporter of questionable goods. You bought a well used L049 Constellation and use it to transport your goods to interesting locations around the globe. Your old tired engines will produce exhaust flames at high MP and smoke a lot when starting. This version depicts a tired old airiline Connie that is now a tired old transporter and features modified smoke effects for more volume, exhaust flames at high MP, matching stairs, wicked looking stewardess and worn and abused cockpit with aged gauges.

Now available at SOH library.

This gives me a great excuse to fly a Connie into dodgy, marginal, unprepared strips!

Many thanks Paul,
Bill

Warbirds, Can you try painting a "tropical" livery? Something you might expect to see travelling to the Caribbean in the 1940s.

Looks fantastic! And love the back story ha.

Now that P3Dv4 has me back out of XP's stronghold I will download this as soon as the Connie is updated. Can't wait, A2A planes are tough to live without on the XP side of things.

Thanks for putting this together! Puts the great song "Treetop Flyer" in my head....

Considering the mission, I would want to know if it can do the Kessel Run in 12 parsecs or less.

Great job!
