There's a fella named Roger who comes in here at Copy-Pro regularly.Roger flew all the Connies in the USAF then went on to become a commercial airline pilot.He said that turbulence was the big issue.
The first iteration of 1951,with the 53-foot flying-saucer radome was the worst for rudder and elevator authority.He said they didn't fly worth a ---t.
