I am very privileged to have flown in a Super Connie in 1966, my first and best ever as a passenger.

I don't remember the Connie with favor. March 1970 they were used as awacs ,one developed problems and crashed on top of us. Luckily we only lost an F4 and no personnel but it was a scramble getting the rest of our planes away from the fire. Sadly the personnel on board weren't so lucky.

That was a NAVY Constellation that stalled and crashed on landing at Da Nang. The #3 engine was shut down, but that shouldn't have had any bearing on the landing... I have 2500 hours on USAF EC-121's, and probably 25-30 "3 engine landings".

These beauties back in their hey days would fly passengers from Sydney to London. (!)
