bernd1151 Posted June 11, 2016 Share Posted June 11, 2016 Ok, this is not a secretly converted PMDG DC-6 for X-plane, but the Just Flight DC-6. It flies pretty nice and looks great. And luckily I don’t need a degree in physics in order to start the engines. She might look small when parked next to a 777, but here in Sonoma among all the GA planes, this thing is BIG!

Bermuda425 Posted June 11, 2016 Share Posted June 11, 2016 Crackerjack shotz! It's mind-boggling to view how you gain altitude steadily and then approach in that vintage liner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PDX Flyer Posted June 11, 2016 Share Posted June 11, 2016 Holy Sh*t Batman! First of let me clarify that the DC-6 along with the DC-3 are two of my most favorite planes. So I am kind of partial to your photo journey. One of most enjoyable set of pics I have seen in a long time. Your shots tell a story of a wonderful flight that I guess you must have enjoyed. Thanks so much for sharing them with us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VH-KDK Posted June 11, 2016 Share Posted June 11, 2016 Terrific set Bernd. Some amazing scenery, just the perfect backdrop to the beautiful DC-6. Just an average sized plane by todays standards but when I was young they were a big plane. 1 hour ago, PDX Flyer said: Holy Sh*t Batman!

You have great tastes PDX. For me anything with a radial engine is a favourite! So many great airliners from this era. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bernd1151 Posted June 11, 2016 Author Share Posted June 11, 2016 Thank you very much my friends for your kind comments. Yes, I admit, I did enjoy that flight immensely. The scenery, the weather, time of the day, the plane, and above all the sound of four big radial engines, it all fit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
