Chek Posted July 12, 2016 Share Posted July 12, 2016 I can imagine the sight oft those exhaust flames helping keep you feeling warm on a cold dark 11 hour Atlantic crossing. Uilleann 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Troy Molitor Posted July 14, 2016 Share Posted July 14, 2016 Exhaust powered recovery turbines. Awesome. I had the pleasure to fly in the Save a Connie back in the 90's. I was working for TWA at the time and we allowed the organization to strip and paint their constellation in our hanger. My son and I and a few invited guests got a tour of down town Kansas City and Arrowhead / Kaufman stadium. My son was 3-4 at the time. He's the biggest KC Chiefs fan around to this day. Love the constellation. Uilleann 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bruce Posted July 25, 2016 Share Posted July 25, 2016 Isn't that just magic! Iain I tried to send this as a PM but your system isn't accepting messages. Is there any chance I could get you to cast 4 of the engines you used on the Connie for me to use on my 1/32 ID models B-29? I would be more than glad to pay for your resin costs and shipping to me here in Warner Robins, GA. I have followed your build ever since I took all the pics and measurements for you of the a/c we have here in the Robins Museum of Aviation.

Iain Posted July 25, 2016 Author Share Posted July 25, 2016 Hi Bruce - the moulds aren't brilliant - but *if* they'll take a few more casts I'll run some off for you - had someone else asking too - need to check. Iain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iain Posted July 29, 2016 Author Share Posted July 29, 2016 OK - suitably nagged the Connie is out in the workshop again. Plan is to do some more cockpit work over the weekend - starting with a repaint of the panels into green, rather than grey.
