Well I broke down and bought the PMDGs DC-6 and after watching the tutorials on YouTube I tried my first flight.
It is a study aircraft and I think PMDG really out did themselves. with the flight engineer makes it simplified for
those who just want to get going. The manual is 69 pages, and there is a lot of tutorials from PMDG on YouTube.
PMDG never fails to disappoint. Seems very realistic and fly's beautifully and the lighting system is amazing.

The flight engineer will get you up and running, and will get you in the air, after that I turned him off and l flew to
the approach and landed manually.

I will be doing a CVA livery for it.

She's a beauty!!! Can hardly wait to see her in CVA colours!!!

Cheers!

Maybe you meant, "PMDG never disappoints." lol

I am also planning on buying this aircraft.
My first ever plane ride was at age 6 in a DC-6 from YXY to YVR. My ears never hurt so much.

yes you're right, they never disappoint. It is a beauty nice to fly once you get the hang of it.
It would be nice to have someone to fly with the DC-6 online.
