Fly with Confidence. Fly the Lockheed Super Constellation.
Now boarding: the very finest in piston-powered air travel. The Lockheed Super Constellation is not just an aircraft—it's a statement. With its unmistakable triple tail and graceful dolphin-shaped fuselage, the “Connie” brings together elegance, power, and precision engineering in one unforgettable flight experience.
[hr]
Cruising comfortably at 300 knots (that’s over 550 kilometers per hour), and with a range of 1,000 kilometers, the Super Constellation is perfectly suited for regional journeys and short transcontinental flights. Beneath its shining skin, four mighty Wright R-3350 Duplex-Cyclone radial engines deliver up to 3,400 horsepower each, ensuring not just speed but reliability and power you can feel at takeoff.
[hr]
Step inside and discover a cabin designed with both form and function in mind. Seating is arranged for 60 passengers, with ample legroom and wide windows to enjoy the view. Our professional five-member flight crew, assisted by friendly and graceful stewardesses, ensures every detail is attended to. With four lavatories strategically placed throughout the cabin, comfort is never more than a few steps away.
[hr]
For our most distinguished travelers, we invite you to relax in the Parisian Cabin—a private space offering four premium seats finished with refined materials and European flair. An additional four auxiliary seats provide flexibility for VIPs, dignitaries, or spontaneous upgrades.
[hr]
Enjoy the benefits of a pressurized cabin, allowing for high-altitude cruising without sacrificing comfort. Advanced sound insulation keeps your flight peaceful, while the unique triple-tail design offers enhanced yaw stability—meaning a smoother, steadier ride, even in variable air conditions.
[hr]
Whether you're flying for business or for pleasure, the Super Constellation delivers a journey unlike any other. It’s where timeless design meets modern capability—an aircraft built not just to travel, but to inspire.
Fly with pride. Fly with power. Fly the Super Constellation.
