And it's great!!!
good job, and works nicely in FSX! (although it's a port-over, which doesn't always say much)
I'm sure I will spend a lot of time in this bird!

In Manfred's readme concerning "HANDLING THE VARIANTS" he states that
If you want to have all variants correctly configured and available at all
times consider building separate folders for each of them.
Well I am scratching my head trying to figure just how to do this. Each
variant has its own aircraft.cfg file. He has about 4 or 5 variation of this Connie i.e. Radar Nose tanks, snub nose tanks, snub nose etc. And only 4 thumbnails were made for the basic set, i.e. radar nose tanks. How can I
fix this so all his variants are available in FSX, I know I will have to make thumbnails for the variants that I want to add. :isadizzy:

Hi

I am from the development team

The aircraft.cfg's differ each other by

lights section(a tiptank version has the nav lights more outward) and the taxilights

So you can either life with one folder all types but then the lights are correct for only 1 of the 4 variants(Reason Is smaller download) or you make 4 aircraft folders for each type one(Correct model has to be aircraft.cfgs model section)

For the thumbnails-->sorry you have to do by yourself(FSX key V-->BMP in my pictures-->resave as jpg-->resize-->texture folder

Head over to Calclassic you can see more repaints
