Posted there already before seeing this thread. It’s a no brainer. It’s a firm yes for me. I’m confident @expat and few others agree.
 
Some images of the new big spinner models etc. Nice to see my old friends... :)

Absolutely a thrill to have these classics back!!!! Never thought it might happen. We are all deeply indebted to Tom.
 
Got the new model installed - looks as good as ever.

Great shots Eric!

Is the plane in your first screenshot missing the nose wheel hub texture?

What a treat this has been. As per expat, we’re indeed indebted - Thanks Tom!
 
Thanks.

The top picture is an early Western Airlines scheme @1952 that was done by Frank Gonzalez.
This particular model is an early no radar version.

Heres an image of an actual DC-6 with this style nose wheel.

Thanks for clarifying-I should have double-checked, since wheel casting designs often evolved a lot even within a given type, during this period, especially with nose wheels from fighters both from Douglas and Vought. I’m assuming a similar situation here.

Thanks.
