Shamrock Airways Flight 106 between Detroit and New York City passes over the airport while climbing to altitude with a load of early morning business travellers.

Thanks. I'm rekindling my love for old propliners. This one came with a modified smoke FX file that gives you a rolling smogbank on startup just like I remember from the real world prop jobs I'd see as a kid back in the 60's at the airport when we would go there to see my grandfolks off on one of their trips after they retired. Back then you could actually walk out on the ramp and around the planes, and once My brother and I got to sit in the cockpit of a DC-6! Smiley

Hi!

Nice pic thanks.  Was Shamrock airways a real airline?  An Irish airline?  An American airline with an Irish theme?

Nice propliner though.  If you like that era of aviation I would reccommend a cool book "North Star Over My Shoulder" by Bob Buck.  Lots of propliner commercial flying in it!

Many thanks!

Shamrock Airways is my own invention. It's a small airline based out of Maine. Thanks for the heads up about the book, I'll have to see if my library has a copy Smiley

Many thanks!
