Dear All

The sole provider of this models is Tom Gibson from CalClassic

Now he made the FSX native 6 B and I dared to ask for the big spinner one.

Instead of NO the answer was it ther is more the 2 interested ( Eric Joiner and me) he may consider as he thought enough FSX/P3D payware arround

So if intested pls post there

Posted there already before seeing this thread. It’s a no brainer. It’s a firm yes for me. I’m confident @expat and few others agree.

Absolutely a thrill to have these classics back!!!! Never thought it might happen. We are all deeply indebted to Tom.

Got the new model installed - looks as good as ever.

Great shots Eric!

Is the plane in your first screenshot missing the nose wheel hub texture?

What a treat this has been. As per expat, we’re indeed indebted - Thanks Tom!

Thanks.

The top picture is an early Western Airlines scheme @1952 that was done by Frank Gonzalez.
This particular model is an early no radar version.

Heres an image of an actual DC-6 with this style nose wheel.

Thanks for clarifying-I should have double-checked, since wheel casting designs often evolved a lot even within a given type, during this period, especially with nose wheels from fighters both from Douglas and Vought. I’m assuming a similar situation here.

Thanks.
