I think you will find that Vulcan B2's were fitted with Olympus - the prototype B1 had Avons.
The noisiest aircraft I can recall was the AW52 - it had a very high pitched scream as well as the exhaust roar.

ACH!!! Your right..Mia Culpa.. I apologize.. I must have been having a senior moment when i stated that.. Thanks for the correction :)..

No problem Pam, I have plenty of those senior moments...... but with regard to Avon noise, maybe you are thinking of the Hawker Hunter 'blue note'?

I wish.. Now there was a legendary aircraft :)..But no.. I just got confused. I've had so many airp[lanes and so many engines go past my eyueballs these last 11 years that i sometimes just cant keep em all straight..
 
Partly my fault WarHorse.. I had to padsss it off to Paul ( my partner ) and I did so just at the time Just Flight needed him to dig in and get some things done on some of their work.. I'll try and contact him and seee how its going..
 
The delay is mostly my fault as I have taken a long break from project work due to some RW issues.

Not entirely resolved but am trying to get the package out for a "first beta exposure".

There are a few minor unresolved gauge/PTT warning light issues but no major functional issues in our testing.
I also have not mapped/textured the seat, and there is a minor flight model change pending.
IMO, no show stoppers.

I will get a package out and hopefully we can get some feedback to help get any other issues resolved.
 
Me too! Putting on my bubblewrap flight suit:encouragement: Better use a VERY long runway and don't do nuttin' stupid once it's up. You will lose all flight capabilities and plunge to your ultimate destruction!:wavey: This is gonna take some practice:banghead:

Doesn't like having to load XMLTools in FSX/Accel. First time I tried it crashed, the second time it simply wouldn't proceed with the loading process until I selected "No" to the use of XMLTools.
 
I have been running xml tools for two years in FSXA, no issues that I recall.

Did you check the log file in the installation folder of xmltools 2.0?

"To run the installer, copy XMLTools_20 Installer.exe to any folder and execute it, preferable as Administrator. Besides the on screen log, XMLToolsInstallerLog.txt file is created also in the same folder."

Yep. Just figured that out. Is XMLTools necessary? I edited my panel.cfg and removed [Window08] just to load and get airborne.

I checked my version (and log files) of XMLTools and am running 2.0. It's located in my root directory of FSX, not in the gauge directory.

Be sure to follow the ref and checklist flap speeds for takeoff, climb out, cruise and approach.

See the Docs folder for additional help.

As stated in the installation instructions, optional.

It provides Afterburner sounds, some rumbling and VC shaking in certain G and AoA situations.
But, you can ignore it altogether.

EDIT: Indeed, [Window08] in the panel.cfg is unnecessary.
 
If it's of any help, my error report indicated a conflict with the panels.dll when attempting to load the aircraft with XMLTools active.

Does this still happen after removing Window08?

Have you restarted the sim since?

EDIT: Did you check the log in the XMLTools installation folder?
 
Just curious; is anyone flying this without issues who are using xmltools? and who are NOT using xmltools?
