A legendary Lockheed L1049F Super Constellation, HBRSC, visited Airport BernBelp in Switzerland. Engine startup with flames and smoke. Flame out while turning on the runway. Closeup take off and great engine sound.

The "Super Connie" is still considered the most beautiful aircraft ever built. The elegant dolphinshaped fuselage and the triple tail design are a feast for the eyes. The distinctive sound of the four powerful 18cylinder radial engines (Wright R3350) make the heart of any plane enthusiast beat faster. The screechy brakes might put a smile on the faces of many people.

Enjoy the closeup view of the spectacular Super Constellation; a great piece of aviation history or in other words a flying legend! The Swiss watch manufacturer BREITLING is the main sponsor of this classic airliner.
