Thank you all for the tips and, thank you Kyle and PMDG for allowing this post to continue.

Given that both Kyle and RSR are DC-3 guys, I'm hoping they'll continue to turn a blind eye to our little off-topic adventure.  Thanks, guys, if that's true!

Thanks a lot for the information! I would love to have one of the bigger twin props such as the Martin 404 or one of the Convair's. A lot of child hood memories in those.

Count me in on this as well. The American Airlines CV 240s - the original in this series - is the one I would want. Flew it many times when I was a kid in the 50's/60's. And it's a piston, not a turbo prop! With the PMDG DC-6 and Manfred Jahn DC-3, I have really gotten into the complexities of managing these big radial piston engines when they are accurately simulated.

Yes Sir! I have a hanger full of glass jets and frankly have gotten quite bored watching the magenta line counting the miles to TOD so I'll have something to do. Don't think I'll be grabbing that PMDG 747-8 when it comes out.  More radial prop liners I would love. 

As a bonus props don't seem near as hard on your system as glass jets allowing you to turn your sliders up and enjoy that add on scenery we've paid for.
