[Konvas] O/T Sound Recordings Required

[Speedbirdmgh at aol.com]

Hi Everyone.
 
Looking for sound recordings of the following aircraft.
 
DC4/DC6/DC7  or Lockheed Constellation or any other 'radial' 4 engined  
piston aircraft type.
 
Preferably recordings of Wright Cyclone engines or Pratt  Whitney's. 
Ideally looking for start up/ warm up/ taxiing/ run up/ take  off.  Sounds must be 
isolated with no other noises if possible. Also  looking for interior 
sounds (cockpit and cabin) as above. Crew "chit chat" is  desirable but must have 
their permission first.
 
Recordings should be 24 bit/96hz but can accept anything less and will  
consider analogue too. Small portable handheld recorders can do the job if  
carefully phased but recordings must be in stereo. Can accept mono recording of 
 one engine starting/running. Manual gain is best but automatic gain is ok 
if you  are not using base cut. I have an archive collection but most old 
aircraft are  in mono.
 
I am asking the forum first as some of you live near airports where some of 
 these aircraft are still used as freighters or as working museum exhibits. 
There  is only one DC4 in the UK which is fitted out as an oil spillage 
aircraft and is  rarely used. There are a few of these aircraft in Europe but 
again rarely  started up yet alone fly.
 
Standard film industry fees apply and copyright protected or  purchased.
 
Many thanks Rita
