Hello!
I've been flying a variety of planes lately and I'd like to fly the oldies as well - this meaning the Douglas DC-3, Constellation and the like. I already see a lot of historical routes flown by Air France & KLM, many of those with vintage planes, however, I do not hold a rating for vintage props nor can I apply for one.

So, is anyone out there able to give me an approximate date on the launch of a historical program? I've already flown a number of routes from years gone by, but with modern planes; however, I'd like to take the DC-3 for a spin every now and then.

Best wishes,
Ted

Unfortunately, I cannot give you a date for the historical program launch. The late Robert Taylor was our foreman on that project and with his passing, the program is temporarily on hold until I can finish up some RW duties and restart the work on it. My best ETA is sometime before June, hopefully in mid May.
