Ride the flightdeck of not 1, but 2, Lockheed Constellations! Start with an explanation of the engineers panel, then we see startup, taxiing and take off from both inside the aircraft and airside. You are riding in the MATS Connie, owned by the Constellation Group, restored and doing the show circuit. For today’s flight, it’s check ride time for the pilots of the Swiss “Save a Connie” group, and we shoot an approach at Tucson International (TUS). You’ll see the landing from both inside the aircraft and airside, then it’s on to the Dutch Connie, now at the Aviodome in the Netherlands. again, you’ll see startup, taxiing and takeoff from both inside the aircraft and airside. This is a test flight after the long restoration project, there are two engineers, and the pilot is the legendary Frank Lang. You’ll see the landing, again, both from inside the aircraft and airside. There’s even a landing looking into the front wheel well from the front baggage compartment.

What a wonderful aircraft. To here those engines brings back my youth, seeing them flying over and at them at the airport. This take you in-depth into the Connie and how it works. Really good information about this aircraft. Great Dvd.

What a beautiful and amazing aircraft the Connie was and still is. I remember flying on them, especially to Europe. Back then that was air travel, my favorite scheme was TWA, How beautiful, also the MAC from the Air Force. What shame their not around, except for a hand full. Great, great Dvd for those who love the Connie. A 5 star rating.
