Product Description
SPECIAL NOTAM FEB 27 2010:
SERVICE PACK 1 FOR THE MADDOG VERSION NOW AVAILALBE!

Voice controlled Multi-Crew Coordination for your "Dog"!!!
The Leonardo Maddog 2008 is without a doubt the most advanced MD-80 simulation available for FSX/FS9; indeed, from a systems modeling perspective, it ranks right up there with the PMDG and LDS aircraft.
But now's your chance to take your Maddog to a higher, more realistic level by adding FS2Crew's custom airline crew expansion pack to the simulation.
Designed in close consultation with a current, real-world MD-80 First Officer, this new edition of FS2Crew is one of FS2Crew's best - and most realistic!
Note: This version of FS2Crew supports both the FS9 and FSX versions of the Leonardo Maddog 2008.
A word from real-world MD80/90 First Officer Samuli Sutinen:
"I am an active MD 80/90 pilot flying for a European airline. When I saw the result of this add-on, I was very surprised about the level of realism and detail. Numerous aspects have been considered concerning the operation of this specific aircraft type, from normal airline operations to realistic SOP handling and crew interaction. All of this definately makes this FS2Crew release the most complete multicrew package available, especially for the MD80 series aircraft".
MD 80/90 First Officer S. Sutinen
FS2Crew Maddog Edition Beta Tester, Product Consultant and the voice for the Finnish FO

- Because the speech recognition engine is built into a gauge file that gets loaded via the host aircraft's panel.cfg file on your main Flight Simulator computer, the software is not networkable. A microphone or headset needs to be connected to your Flight Simulator computer. For a suggested work around, please see this thread in the FS2Crew forum.

Maddog At Last
Posted by Peter Evans on 20th Feb 2010
I have given up on the SH Maddog so many times...
Engine fires, Hot starts, you mame it. I never quite managed te remember all the knobs and switches.
This product is simply a revolution.
It turns the Maddog into the Tame Dog.
The vitual FO takes all the workload, allowing in my case the first truly succesfull flight with the MD80 since 2002!
My favourite feature is that the flight crew have correct regional accents. Go SAS !

My best soft since the Fly The Maddog itself
Posted by Cyril Murat / FCY-MC on 9th Feb 2010
I promise I don’t get a cent from Bryan for writing this, but his soft is just marvelous.
I’ve been using an “old” version of FS2Crew for F1’s ATR on FS9. Time has passed since then… It was very good, it is now just magic.
Of course, you won’t have a real human as F/O like you can have in the Fly The Maddog MCC. But it is not possible every night to find a real F/O isn’t it?
You will get three things with FS2Crew:
A very good way to learn real Multi Crew Cooperation procedures
A whole set of people (ground, FA, F/O) listening to all what you say and reacting with a great precision (you will fly very complicated approach following ATC vectors and your flight director without putting your hands off the yoke and without touching your mouse, just asking for flaps, speeds, headings, armed mode etc.)
A very quick and nice support from the author (I still don’t know when he finds the time to sleep!)
I’ve been reading thousands of pages in real world FOM manuals and I can say that I know the Maddog quite well, and I promise that I really feel that it has been developed with a real world pilot. No amateur is able to make it smell so true.
Best flights with the MD to all.
