Posted: Mon Jun 02, 2008 11:56 amI have owned the Maddog sim "Fly the Maddog" for quite a while but hadn't used it until recently.
I am really loving this simulation. I believe it has to be one of the most realistic simulations that I have and I'm really enjoying it.
I usually like to sim with TrackIR in a fully functional 3d cockpit, but this Maddog is so detailed that I like it even though it has only a 2d cockpit.
Now they have announce that they are about to release a fully functional and detailed 3d cockpit within a month or two.
For me that will make this absolutely the best airline sim available. I am very excited about it.
I also purchased the "Learn the Maddog". A three hour DVD which goes over in detail all of the systems and procedures for the Maddog and also gives a lot of tips on operating the sim more smoothly. I got it in the mail last week and have really been enjoying it. It is packed with information about the MD82 and the Maddog Sim.
Here I've had this simulation sitting idle for probably a year and now I'm just enjoying the heck out of it.
Has it been anyone else's experience to buy a sim and just put it away for a long time, then break it out and find it is a treasure?
A lot of times I will buy something for FS and not install it right away. Then rediscover it several months later. It is a lot of fun to find something like that.
