FSX:SE Buy the A2A Constellation?

So, should I get myself an early Christmas present? Would it bring my rig to its knees, given that some UK2000 airports lower my FPS in simple aircraft to below 20 on occasion (UK2000 is very FPS friendly imho, plus Manchester & Liverpool are my "local" airports :) ). Over default areas I'm seeing a locked 30 fps, so apart from the UK and big international airport add-ons elsewhere I don't think there'd be a problem. For the most part, having been simming since Zx Spectrum days, I can live with a bit of stutter. I like the idea of COTS... and Betty bringing me a coffee or something to eat during the flights .... and the big radial sounds!

The Connie gets good fps. It does not have any modern glass panel displays and they are what take up the fps.

... plus the fact that you do a rather nifty set of cockpit textures, Paul!  OK  I'll pull the trigger.

Nice marketing reply from you LOL!
