TWA Constellation: deliverd with long nose?

[chris13]

Hello,

I saw many pics about Constellations of TWA, some have the short nose, some the longe one.
Where the Constellations of TWA delivered with the long nose or was a retrofit?
If yes, when was it?

I think the L-1049G and Starliner all haid a long nose, or?

Hi,

TWA L-1049G's and L-1649A's were delivered with radar noses. All the others were delivered with short noses.

Hope this helps,

Is it correct that all Super Constellation had the top white colors and only the L049 an L749 had the bare metal textures?

Hi,

Yes, the L-1049's (no letter suffix) were delivered in white top (with short noses). All Connies before that were delivered in bare metal.

Hope this helps,
