I opened a ticket at JF shortly after downloading and George suggested I try running it from the panel folder itself but I'd already tried this. I've noticed a few oddities with switches and lights which may be related to the fact something is missing.. eg, up to date dot net files or similar. I dunno to be honest. This is a fresh install on a fresh install of Win7 Ultimate so anything is possible. Unfortunately, the error doesn't give any clues.. not that I can see.
Still.. I'm not downhearted. It's a smashing model and one of the few I have of this type that's a pleasure to hand fly;-)

I've been encountering another problem that I've reported to their support team, and thought I'd share it here.

Basically, I'm getting a Fatal Error message and FSX restart whenever I attempt to use one of the FSX Navigation tools.

I got the Fatal Error message whenever I attempted to load a save flight plan for flying (the Canberra). Just a few minutes ago I was on a flight to Spokane, WA with autopilot. When I called up the FSX map to verify an NDB frequency, I got a Fatal Error again when I closed out (cancelled) the map view.

I'm guessing that the GPS is conflicting with something, but don't know for sure. Other than that, this is a lot of fun to fly.

Thank you, Dave! In any case it's good to know i'm not the only one having a problem with it. Let's see what happens...

cheers,

Hate to mention this but I just tried the Flight Analysis Tool for the first time... It works just dandy for me.

Wonder why others are having problems with it?

In my case I think it's because I'm running Windows XP Home (32-bit) and the error prompt I get says it's "...not a valid Win32 application". I'd like to be able to use all the plane's features but I fixed the nose wheel steering by manually tweaking the cfg file. That's all I wanted to use the Flight Analysis tool for - when I found out I couldn't use it.

[Barfly]

No bugs noticed here...

This is a fun stick and rudder airplane, that requires a lot of rudder to control adverse yaw when rolling. Great for scenery observation at low altitude, in areas like Orbx Northern California... with it's bubble canopy offers a great view and you can cruise as low as 150 mph, or as fast as 450 if you need to get somewhere.

For landing you have positive roll control down to 110, then once aligned with the runway, you can slow further, flaring to about 90 before touchdown... it will land in 1000 ft if you're careful; 2500 ft runways are not too hard, so landing in many Orbx small airports is challenging but very doable. Very enjoyable to fly and sight see in, haven't looked too in depth at systems.

Ground steering control is fairly easy if you use differential power in addition to the castoring nose wheel.

Pretty big problem is that the Canberra Flight Analysis Tool is not compatible with WinXP

Zsoltquack, maybe time to change an OS? Now, many games and addons too works only on Vista and more. I know, it isnt an easy decision but trust me, FSX and other games, simulators works better (and stable) on Win7 than on XP.
Many sims now use a DirectX 10/11... on IL-2 Cliffs of Dover, IL-2 Battle of Stalingrad, new incoming engine of DCS, P3D ect.

But for sure, here Win XP is OK as needed system: http://www.justflight.com/product/canberra-pr9-download .

[DaveWG]

I know some people who are having trouble with the tool are using Win7-64, so it's not limited to XP.Works fine for me though.

[Chris Sykes]

Odd as it worked on my Win7 64bit PC.

[dhazelgrove]

The tool also works fine under Win8.1, but I'm finding that the frame rate hit I have with this aircraft makes it unusable.

I have raised a ticket, but nothing has come of it.

Is that a trick of the shot angle or an incredibly small Vulcan??

The Throttles are not working with my CH Pro Throttle.
Mike

?
Doesnt work on FSX settings? My CH Throttle Quadrant works fine, all levers.

[big-mike]

No,
throttles generally assigned to FSUIPC registered version.
Mike

PS.solved

[DaveB]

Thanks for that zsoltquak.. I have Wadders and the JY Vulcans so it's obviously a trick of the shot angle. Also.. I have 'aircraft cast shadows' enabled which would make a difference;-)

Mentioning shadows.. I also have aircraft casting shadows on themselves enabled and the PR9's wire AE casts a pretty awful shadow onto the model but that's by the by.

Mike,I'm fairly certain that the throttles are run through SimConnect because of systems and potential failure scenarios. From what I can gather, that means that you have to assign your throttle axes within FSX itself rather than through an external program such as FSUIPC.

[DaveWG]

I've got my throttles assigned via FSUIPC & they work fine for me.

Thanks---it`s working momently.
I have them connected via an Hub and i think,that the Hub is dying.
Will watch that.

That's correct, i'm on W7/64 too. I don't get an error message or anything like that when i try to run the FA tool, it's just that nothing happens...

Nice one Andy, I must find that painting by Frank Wootton, from memory it was a PR9, I have it in the library here but just to find it

[YoYo]

Yep, this skin "rulez".



But I like this grey too:

The second shot of the grey skin is a beauty.
