Abacus have released their Lockheed Constellation Platinum for Flight Simulator X and Flight Simulator 2004.

Besides the famous 747, the Constellation is one of the most visually recognizable aircraft of all time. Its majestic triple tail is a dead giveaway for this classic airliner that first appeared in the early 1940s.

Francisco Sanchez-Castaner has designed this awesome replication of the Lockheed Constellation for FSX and FS2004 with its trademark elliptical wing tips and triple vertical stabilizer, Fowler flaps and tricycle landing gear.

Delivered in three colorful variations, it represents top-of-the-line quality in workmanship including the custom “throaty” Curtis-Wright Cyclone engine sounds from Aaron Swindle.

The detailed flight briefing will have you flying in no time from the large four-place cockpit that seats the pilot, co-pilot, navigator and flight engineer. You’ll fly the four-engine Constellation using the classical analog instrument panel from either the familiar 2D or 3D virtual cockpit modes.
