Canberra PR9

MODEL

• Accurately modelled using real-world aircraft plans
• Numerous animations including canopy, navigator hatch, pilot ladder, ground power units, chocks and retractable landing light
• Accurately animated control surfaces including ailerons, flaps, tail-plane, elevators and three-position airbrakes
• 2048x2048 textures are used to produce the highest possible texture clarity
• Functioning flare bay doors
• Accurately modelled Rolls-Royce Avon Mk 206 engines including inlet guide vanes (IGVs)
• Bump and specular mapping use throughout the aircraft to produce a truly 3D feel
• Signature landing gear configuration with low-position nose-gear is faithfully modelled and animated using real-world extension/retraction times

COCKPIT

• A truly 3D virtual cockpit right down to the cables and piping - every instrument is fully constructed in 3D with smooth animations
• Every switch, knob and gauge is functional
• Cockpit textures feature wear and tear based on reference photos taken in the real aircraft to produce an authentic environment
• Highly detailed ejection seat 
• Comprehensive and fully functioning communications and navigation fit:
   - GMA340 – COM/NAV audio control unit with test mode and functioning marker lights
   - SL30 – COM 2/NAV2 radio unit with functioning menu system and the ability to save/recall commonly used frequencies
   - GTN650 – touchscreen GPS unit which can also be used to set aircraft fuel levels and control COM1 / NAV1
   - Modern horizontal situation indicator (HSI)
   - 2x GI-206 VOR gauges
• Authentic autopilot with track, glide, altitude, pitch and bank hold modes
• Functioning oxygen regulator panel – watch the oxygen quantities drop with usage!
• Interactive checklists for every stage of the flight
• Aircraft configuration system lets you choose between 'cold & dark', or 'ready for take-off'
• Authentic night-lighting
• Accurately modelled and animated canopy with locking pins and handles
• Fully functioning magnetic indicators, warning lights and push-to-test buttons
• Over twelve 2D pop-up panels are included to provide easy access to cockpit controls and instruments, all accessible from an unobtrusive panel selector
• When resuming a saved flight, your previous panel state will be reloaded
• Clickspots for enabling useful functions such as automatic fuel management, autothrottle and trim reset
• No detail is too small – even the option to revert to the back-up gear indicator lights is functional!

LIVERIES

Four authentic RAF colour schemes, covering 13 Squadron, 39 Squadron and 58 Squadron:

SYSTEMS

Realistic engine start simulation with accurate spool-up times. Each engine start will even drain power from the starter batteries!

• Custom-coded fuel system – belly tank, rear tank, top tanks and wing tanks are all simulated with functioning fuel pumps and transfer system. 2D pop-up panel provides an overview of the fuel system state.
• Custom-coded hydraulics system with functioning pumps and accumulators. Functional hand pump for use in the event of hydraulic failure
• Custom-coded electrical system with engine-driven generators, six inverters and three battery systems simulated (including emergency battery/avionics system)
• Fire detection and extinguisher system
• Two different aileron input sensitivity levels for use at high and low altitudes
• Functioning jet pipe temperature limiters with MAX and CRZ (cruise) settings

OTHER

• Stereo cockpit sounds
• Flight monitoring system lets you review parameters from your flight including G-Force, fuel consumption, distance travelled and speed
• Frame rate friendly 
• Comprehensive 170-page colour PDF manual with panel guide

"It is all good, I just cannot fault it... A truly great add-on... For me, this aircraft add-on is, in terms of military aircraft, a game changer... Just Flight’s 'Canberra' PR.9 is more than a great add-on for FSX / P3D. Indeed, it is hard to put into words just how good it is... The external model is one of the best I have ever seen. Textures are of the highest quality, with fantastic detail, animations are excellent, and movements are smooth... The flight characteristics of the aircraft are very well modelled indeed and the exterior and interior visual models are first class... There is a full set of sounds included in the package which must have been recorded from the real aircraft, such is the quality... Clearly, a lot of work has gone into building the flight dynamics into the package... The panel selector is a very useful and practical tool to provide easy access to any panel detail, whenever you need it... You could not ask for a better set of checklists, all of which are interactive... An extremely comprehensive documentation set... It is a bargain at the price" Mutley's Hangar (Award for Excellence 10/10)

"Just Flight’s virtual model of the English Electric Canberra PR.9 is a revelation... The best Just Flight product I've had the pleasure to fly!... A simulation of the Canberra PR.9 that can be enjoyed by both casual as well as ‘hard-core’ flight simmers alike... Whichever angle you view this aircraft, it looks impressive – the design team has fully captured the look and lines of the original. In fact, it has a photorealistic look to it... If you switch to the external view, you will be impressed with the attention to detail... Another standout feature of this Canberra simulation is the sound reproduction which is stunning and dynamic, particularly as you move around the exterior view" PC Pilot magazine (Platinum Award)

"I just can't praise it enough. It is by far one of the best military style aircraft I used in Flight Simulator as it offers both a great deal of complexity and detail in one marvelous package!... The aircraft excels on so many different levels that it truly has to be experienced to get a full understanding of what went into this add-on... Packed with eye candy and moving parts... The sound package really does bring the engines to life... The cockpit is totally functional and I was unable to find anything that didn't work in it... An excellent aircraft and the developers definitely deserve major kudos for bringing this jet to life in Flight Simulator!" Avsim.com

"For fans of cold war era aircraft, the Canberra PR9 definitely is a real must have. Not only does the virtual cockpit entirely satisfy the pilot, documentation, flight dynamics and sound are excellent as well. PC pilots get a lot for their money - even compared to other planes with the same pricing from other labels. We hope Just Flight will keep this impressive quality level with their next releases" FlusiNews.de (9.5/10 - 'Hot Tipp' award) 

 "A solid package including a high quality aircraft, excellent documentation and some additional eye candy" FSMagazin (Editor's Choice award)
