Ok, will give it a shot.
Thank you for doing this. I sent you a few pictures to give you some additional views. I hope it helps.

Another scheme to possibly tempt one of the repainters!

American Flyers was a supplemental airline that operated from 1949 to 1971. Sadly I never saw any of their Connies, but I did see some of their 727s at Shannon during refuelling stops on transatlantic charters.

I would love to see a repaint of the later TWA airlines, the red and white scheme.

Nice liveries but I am looking for the more unique, not so well known livery and a bit more colorful.

how about the Panair Connie in the Panair museum? (see page 4 of this thread?)
Or the Suid Afrikaanse lugdiens?

Hmmm...... how about this for unique and colourful (and challenging!!)?

This aircraft was destroyed in a non-fatal forced landing just a month after delivery (the black and white photo above was shot on take off from Heathrow during its delivery flight).

Both images were scanned from Peter Marson's wonderful book on the Lockheed Constellation.

Thanks, that is cool but I am not sure how or even if I could duplicate that top black font.

How about this one, it's a 749 but there a so few Latin Connies. Unfortunately there are very few images on the net. The white top might be a later paint and might look the best...

Here's a couple of suggestions of actual 049's. How about this one?? The last airline to operate passenger services in an 049 Connie into the continental US.

Or there's this:

Or similarly:

I believe there was a Paradise Airlines, operating between Las Vegas and San Francisco briefly. One of their planes crashed near Lake Tahoe in the '60's.

Warbirds,

If you're looking for a colorful challenge I think the L-049 would look good in a Hawaiian Airlines livery.

I think the next one will be the Delta CS scheme.
