  • MOTION, if you're listening, I want one of these!

    Something in the size range of the Al37. I would buy several! Put them out in white primer.

    In a heartbeat. I was at the Navy's retirement ceremony for the last flight to the boneyard in 1982. VAQ-33....

      My Father in Law flew them. First as a radio operator out of Otis and then his first airplane out of pilot training at McClellan. He talks often about the Connie!

        Yep, I'd buy one.

        My mom was a "stewardess" on a Connie flying between Seattle and Anchorage for Pacific Northern Airlines in the 50's.

        Here's a link to a cool website of the PNA Constellation.

          I’m in for a Connie!

          Keth Sparks recently designed and built one. I have the right of first refusal when he decides to sell it. Even if I get Keith’s, I would still buy one from MRC.

            Would love a Connie around the same size as the AL37. It would need to have, at least the ability to put, grass friendly wheels on it.

              Connie, Connie, Connie. I was talking to Xplaneguy the other day about how much we'd love to finish the Connie.
