I found this inetersting youtube:

 

 

and while watching it, this reference:

which looks like a great acquisition :-)

Interesting, but I simply cannot watch 12 fps flight sim videos! And judging the FDM at that frame rate is quite impossible as well, I think... ;-)

But I am really impressed by the immersion this addon creates, it's an absoluely enjoyable piece of software, worth every cent of its price!!

That frame rate is painful. When it's that low, it's hard to tell much about the fine points of the flight model. Also you get into pilot induced oscillation with frantic steering column motion when landing. You're chasing the flight model instead of staying ahead of it. 

 

Nice plane model though. I wish we had a good Connie in X-Plane. I just can't get the same cool vibe from the DC-6.

Wow, wonder why that video does have such a bad frame rate?  The A2A Connie is actually really easy on the frames, one of my better performing add ons.
