This is the scaled Lockheed L-1049 Super Constellation! My most proud build yet!
Trans World Airlines because it’s my favorite airline.
Activation Group 8 for landing lights, VTOL down for flaps, 40% Throttle on takeoff.
Also gotta love that exhaust and scaled beacon lights!
This is the Lockheed L-1049 Super Constellation. It’s a famous aircraft, more famous than you. Produced between 1951 to 1958, 579 of these beauties were made. 320 belonged to the military, and they were the first to come off the line. This was due to complete satisfaction from the U.S. Military. After all these models were made, commercial use for them began to take place. Now, I know what you’re thinking. Why 3 rudders? Well, if it were to have 1 singular rudder, it could not fit in any hangars. That’s my favorite feature about this aircraft.

@DandruffCat If you would allow me I would love to use this for The Krakabloan Cargo Agency, I would be honored! P.S. Rip the beautiful Connie, she will be missed
Great plane, my only complaint is that the thrust and throttle seem unrealistic.
cool
@DandruffCat I'm a simple man. I see a Super Constellation, i hit upvote. Good work!
What a Beauty!
The build of this is absolutely beautiful!
very very good
@sireier All of my aircrafts from now on are scale because of fine tuner scaling.
@frostbite yes you are!
@DandruffCat yea, it has no wings yet....
@corsair013 I know! They are absolutely beautiful. Luck you get to live so close to one
@DandruffCat wow! great plane! One of these is being restored down at an airfield near where i live. They are HUGE in real life.
Beautiful job! Love its flight characteristics

@DandruffCat no problem!
@MrSilverWolf @Treadmill103 @BogdanX @Stingray @A3 @MAHADI @saturn28 @AudioDud3 @frostbite @TheBigEgg @jamesPLANESii @Trainzo Tom Hanks says thank you all!
@frostbite I'm planting to modify one for it
I love the flames out the engines. When I saw one fly over, the fire spitting engines really grabbed my attention, aside from the magnificent roar from the engines.
Fantastic .
Wow! This has gone far since the last time I saw it! Good job!
