CONNIESUPER CONSTELLATIONL1049WARNING STAR

3.8/5 (219)

She is one of the legends of aviation.

The L1049 was the first aircraft to cross the Atlantic in one go. An advanced comfort and technology including a former ILS or a live engine analyzer, as well as a majestic fuselage, earned it its letters of nobility.

Her nickname is Connie or Queen of the skies many years before the 747.

IT IS ONLY COMPATIBLE WITH MODERN FLIGHT MODEL

The L-1049 Super Constellation is a four-engine, propeller-driven, low-wing aircraft produced by the Lockheed Corporation of the United States. First flown on July 14, 1951, the aircraft was used commercially as an airliner and cargo hauler by carriers such as TWA, Air France, KLM, Qantas, and Eastern; however, of the 579 airframes produced, 320 served the United States Navy and Air Force, for transport and early warning, among other duties, before the last unit was retired in the early 1980s.

An icon of aviation engineering and craftsmanship, this stretched successor to the Lockheed Constellation is renowned for its beautiful form that includes a “triple tail” of three vertical stabilizers, an elegantly curved fuselage design, and a long, high aspect ratio wing. With four Wright R-3350 Duplex-Cyclone air-cooled, twin-row, supercharged radial engines, each delivering a maximum 3,700 horsepower to three-bladed propellers, the L-1049 has a top speed of 330 miles per hour, a cruise speed of 304 mph, and a ceiling of 25,700 feet above sea level. Its range of 5,150 miles, and the ability to carry up to 106 passengers or nearly 37,000 pounds of cargo, made the Super Constellation instrumental in the establishment of a number of transatlantic and intercontinental flights.

Within its spacious cockpit, aviators will immediately feel connected with one of aviation’s legends. Crank its four monstrous engines to life, motors that belch fire from their exhaust ports, and roar into the sky for an extended journey far in the heights, or cruise at mid or low altitudes across entire continents. No matter what, the Lockheed L-1049 Super Constellation gives an unforgettable flying performance each time it lifts into the air.
