I have a few questions about the Constellation Pro:

Do the add-on packs alter the VC in any way? (Later Connie's had 2 less windows and a different auto pilot and auto pilot position-auto pilot moved from top of wind shield to beneath throttles on pedestal)

Also, do the add-on packs alter the performance of the aircraft in any way? (more powerful engines)

Any advice or screen shots to illustrate this would be very welcome.

Cheers,
Craig Tatley

Hi.

I've just bought the two add-on packs.

There are some differences to the VC in as much as the L-1049's and L-749's have better visibility; the windows are modelled differently, so you don't have that annoying bar right in your field of view, but apart from that, everything else is the same.

There are differences in views too; the 1049's don't have the first-class cabin with lady passenger view, and don't have a view from the co-pilot's seat.

The flight engineers station is unchanged.

The three models (L-049, L-1049, and L-749) each have different engines, though whether they have differing performance I can't say, but of course the 'planes have increased range and carrying capabilities.
