The Just Flight Viscount is now on pre-order. I can't imagine at this stage of my sim life, ever flying a 4-engine turbo-prop but the Viscount has a special place in my memory. As a youngster I had ridden in the front seat of a J-3 on several occasions, but my first "big airplane" ride was in the Spring of 1960. I flew from Bangor to Boston on a DC-3 and from Boston to Washington on a Viscount. Coming home a week later it was all Viscount. I just looked at the screen shots on the Just Flight page and even though I didn't see a Northeast Airlines livery I had a flashback. I'm tempted to buy it anyway

Yep,I remember the same Tom. Flint to Cleveland on Capitol Airlines Viscounts. I remember a five hour lay-over at Willow Run at night no less. Great time for an 8 to 10 year old.
