During the meeting Hughes expressed his concerns for what he called the "airliner of the future". Lockheed's airliner under development at the time, the <a href="/wiki/L-044_Excalibur" class="mw-redirect" title="L-044 Excalibur">L-044 Excalibur</a>, did not meet the requirements. </p><p>When the meeting ended with Hughes and Frye, the executives immediately started on improving the Excalibur to meet Hughes' expectations. One idea was to use the <a href="/wiki/Wright_R-2600" class="mw-redirect" title="Wright R-2600">Wright R-2600</a> engines in place of the proposed <a href="/wiki/Wright_R-1820" class="mw-redirect" title="Wright R-1820">Wright GR-1820</a>. It was decided instead to start from scratch using some original characteristics of the Excalibur. The design was lengthened from 74 ft 3 in (22.63 m) to 95 ft 9 in (29.18 m) and the wingspan was increased to 102 ft 4 in (31.19 m). Six different layouts of the cockpit envisaged, including a "Bug-Eye" proposal in which the pilot and co-pilot would sit in separate domes next to each other. In the end, it was decided to use a single curvature design with all-around glazing. Three weeks later, the new design was presented. </p><p>The design was given the designation <b>L-049</b> or <b>Excalibur A</b>. The wings of the aircraft were similar to those used by the <a href="/wiki/P-38_Lightning" class="mw-redirect" title="P-38 Lightning">P-38 Lightning</a> fighter. The aircraft was to be powered by four <a href="/wiki/Wright_R-3350_Duplex-Cyclone" title="Wright R-3350 Duplex-Cyclone">Wright R-3350 Duplex-Cyclone</a> radials with the <a href="/wiki/Pratt_%26_Whitney_R-2800" class="mw-redirect" title="Pratt & Whitney R-2800">Pratt & Whitney R-2800</a> as the back-up. Re-designed, the Excalibur was to be priced at $450,000, making it the most expensive airliner on the drawing board. Since TWA was unable to provide funding, Howard Hughes had his other company, the <a href="/wiki/Hughes_Tool_Company" title="Hughes Tool Company">Hughes Tool Company</a>, fund the construction of the airliner. Hughes ordered 40 Excaliburs on July 10, 1940, making the order the largest in airline history at the time. The development was to be kept a secret until the 35th aircraft was delivered to TWA. This was done in order to keep competitors such as <a href="/wiki/Juan_Trippe" title="Juan Trippe">Juan Trippe</a>'s <a href="/wiki/Pan_American_World_Airways" class="mw-redirect" title="Pan American World Airways">Pan American World Airways</a> from ordering the aircraft and competing with TWA. The secret was apparently well kept. </p><p>When Hughes was brought in to look at a scale mock up of the Excalibur's cabin, he was not pleased with the outcome and stated "It's not what I expected". Hughes later had <a href="/wiki/Raymond_Loewy" title="Raymond Loewy">Raymond Loewy</a> redesign the cabin to his liking. A complete life sized mock up of the Excalibur was eventually constructed with battery operated retractable landing gear. The gear mechanisms were tested on the mock up for design validation before production began. The powerplant itself was tested on a <a href="/wiki/Lockheed_PV-1_Ventura" class="mw-redirect" title="Lockheed PV-1 Ventura">PV-1 Ventura</a> which was nicknamed "Vent-ellation" for the occasion. The name "Excalibur" was later dropped as the new aircraft had nothing in common with the original L-044 design. The name "Constellation" was picked up as an unofficial nickname until the intervention of the military. </p><p>The Constellation had several technological advancements such as electric de-icing, hydraulic assisted controls, reversible pitch propellers and <a href="/wiki/Pressurization" title="Pressurization">pressurization</a>, which allowed the Constellation to fly above the clouds. Lockheed had done pressurization in an aircraft before, with the <a href="/wiki/Lockheed_XC-35" title="Lockheed XC-35">Lockheed XC-35</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-Dom_1-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Dom-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-3" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="World_War_II_and_further_development">World War II and further development</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Lockheed_L-049_Constellation&action=edit&section=3" title="Edit section: World War II and further development"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <style data-mw-deduplicate="TemplateStyles:r1236090951">.mw-parser-output .hatnote{font-style:italic}.mw-parser-output div.hatnote{padding-left:1.6em;margin-bottom:0.5em}.mw-parser-output .hatnote i{font-style:normal}.mw-parser-output .hatnote+link+.hatnote{margin-top:-0.5em}@media print{body.ns-0 .mw-parser-output .hatnote{display:none!important}}</style><div role="note" class="hatnote navigation-not-searchable">Main article: <a href="/wiki/Lockheed_C-69_Constellation" title="Lockheed C-69 Constellation">Lockheed C-69 Constellation</a></div> <p>A few months before the <a href="/wiki/United_States" title="United States">United States</a> entered <a href="/wiki/World_War_II" title="World War II">World War II</a>, the <a href="/w/index.php?title=Wartime_Production_Board&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Wartime Production Board (page does not exist)">Wartime Production Board</a> inspected Lockheed's Burbank facility which housed the Constellation prototype. The secret could no longer be kept, and Lockheed announced the existence of the Constellation to the world. Even so, the secret of the Constellation's development remains one of the best kept industrial secrets to this day. Juan Trippe took advantage of this situation and ordered 22 L-049 Constellations and 18 L-149 Constellations (a model with a larger fuel capacity). <a href="/wiki/KLM" title="KLM">KLM</a> jumped in and ordered four examples. However, production couldn't begin right away, as production of warplanes destined for Great Britain required Lockheed’s production facilities. After cancellation of the <a href="/wiki/XB-30" class="mw-redirect" title="XB-30">XB-30</a> (a bomber version of the Constellation) in 1941, military officials gave Lockheed the go-ahead to build 80 Constellations, on the condition that other aircraft on their assembly lines would not be affected.

Flight testing resumed in June 1943. Problems with the R-3350 however, continued and production of the R-3350 was halted until the problems with the engines could be solved.

With the end of the war now in sight, the original order of 260 C-69s was first reduced to 73 then cancelled.

With the Constellation's design at risk, Lockheed purchased the five remaining C-69 transports still in production back from the military, saving 15,000 jobs. The five aircraft were re-converted into L-049 civilian airliners and put up for sale on the market. These modifications included removal of the retractable tail stand; along with the inclusion of a luxury interior, more portholes, a galley, and crew relief areas. Better ventilation, insulation and heating were also added. The powerplants were replaced by R-3350-745C18BA-1 engines (the civilian equivalent to the wartime R-3350-35). Design tests did not need to be conducted, as Lockheed had already tasked them to the C-69 aircraft during the war (one of the C-69s also completed the trials for the civilian airworthiness certificate on December 11, 1945).
