Some pics of the excellent new Just Flight English Electric Canberra PR9 for FSX...

Those familiar with past Just Flight products will know that they've often been very hit and miss... This Canberra is the first product from their new in-house development team and they've really upped their game this time. It's really very good and you can see they've taken a lot of time and care to get this right. 150+ page manual as well as a second manual containing 35 pages of performance data/tables/graphs scanned from the original RAF documents.

Very highly recommended. What's more is this team's next project is a VC10!

Got a bit of a soft spot for old jets and this one looks terrific. Bit too pricey for me atm, considering I don't play FSX much anymore.

Your screens sure make it tempting though thumbsup

Fantastic shots, I remember them from my childhood on an RAF base in Germany in the 70's. Great looking plane and an amazing run in service, but I wouldn't have wanted to be a navigator in one!

It's a really nice aircraft, well worth buying IMHO. If this is indicative of things to come from Just Flight then I'm really looking forward to their VC10 which is my favourite airliner.

Very true, the nav did have a bit of a bum deal!

Just saw you're in Maidstone.... if you look at the 2nd to last pic Maidstone should be somewhere under those clouds!

I lived there from December 2010 through to July 2012. My wife got a new job in London and we moved to Bromley. We really miss living in Maidstone, looking at moving back there later this year!

Glad y'all like it.

I was an alpha and beta tester for this one. Beautiful release product I think. More British goodness to come in future, but I can't say what. ;-)

Cheers,

AJ.


Kindest regards,

Thanks AJ. It's a beauty!

Rich already let the VC10 cat out the bag at Avsim. I've already started pestering for a BAC 1-11.

If you blokes are going to do a series of classic British stuff then my credit card is going to get seriously itchy.

Great shots! And nice to see that JustFlight continues their high-quality range of aircraft. In the past there were too many 'light' planes for my taste.

Oh, that is good news... the BAC 1-11 for from David Maltby was one of my favorites for FS9. Love those British craft!
