FS2004 Lockheed L-1049 Prototype

Lockheed L-1049 prototype repaints recreate the famed XC-69 “The Beast” in early and later testbed paint schemes, capturing the 1950 stretch conversion and distinctive markings for period-accurate flights. Designed for FS2004 with a matching virtual cockpit, the package requires L1049G.ZIP and adds authentic registration and configuration details.

L-1049 Prototype, early and late paint schemes. The original XC-69 prototype "The Beast" was purchased from Howard Hughes for $100,000 in 1950. Lengthened by 18 feet 7 inches, it became the prototype L-1049. Dressed up in special duds, the first flight occurred on 13 October 1950, and the rest is history. Original aircraft by Team 1049 (Manfred Jahn, Roland Berger, Volker Boehme, Luis Pallas, Bill Tyne, and Stefan Werner), requires L1049G.ZIP. Repaint by Dan McManus.
