Fly the Maddog X - addon for Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020.

Fly the Maddog X is one of the most sophisticated and complex add-on ever developed for the MD-82, built after the McDonnel Douglas MD-80 series.

Fly the Maddog X features advanced, study level aircraft systems that cannot be matched by any standard aircraft; it can be flown by following the operations manual of the real aircraft. We even encourage you to use such documentation to experience the level of detail that has been accomplished with this aircraft. Fly the Maddog X also features the undocumented intriguing details that real pilots experience when flying the real aircraft.

Optional MD-83 and MD-88 expansion pack available! Visit the Product Page.

NOTE: If you also own Fly The Maddog X for Prepar3D v4-v5 it should be updated to the latest version in order to work properly side-by-side the MSFS version.

This is a seriously deep simulation of the MD82. I had my eye on this for ages but the price tag always put me off. Finally finding it on a pretty good discount I got it. First off it has a great cockpit that is as close to real as possible. Be prepared to do some studying this aircraft as it has some quirks that are not obvious. An example is that the wheel chocks are not controlled by the EFB but are added or removed using the Anti Collision lights. Another is that there’s no click spot to open close the cockpit door and you have to use the door switch on the overhead panel. These are not complaints, just pointing out some little differences that defy instinctive expectations. The texture quality is best in the cockpit. The passenger compartment is very low quality. Most of the external model is good. Now for the money I really expected much better attention paid to visual quality and feel a little cheated, but like most people I wanted this for its extreme realism and systems. That is delivered in spades and I have no complaints about the fidelity of the realism. If you think because you’ve flown the SkySim DC9 that you will easily transition to this you’d be wrong. While the Maddog and SkySim DC9 are practically the same plane, the Maddog is far more complex and handles very differently. Not being a real world MD 82 pilot, but only a frequent passenger I can’t know just how accurate the flight model is. However it does feel pretty heavy on the controls especially on approach to touch down. You just need to be aware of the aircraft CG, weight, and whatnot as well as paying careful attention to the trim or face a difficult approach. It doesn’t fly like a 737 or A320 etc. Overall this is an amazing add on that really seems to strive for realism.

Je prends beaucoup de plaisir à voler sur cet avion. Il est difficile mais extraordinairement agréable à piloter. L'éditeur a poussé très loin le niveau de réalisme des systèmes simulés. La documentation fournie est très détaillée et permet de bien étudier l'avion. Cet avion est une vraie réussite et nul doute que c'est un plaisir de passer de nombreuses heures à voler dessus. Aucun bug de constaté après déjà plusieurs heures de vol. J'ai hâte de cocher la case "Realism" une fois que je le connaitrai mieux pour découvrir la gestion des pannes et les effets aléatoires. Cet avion est vraiment une belle découverte pour moi.

One of the most sophisticated aircraft in FS24, aged fine like wine over the years!

Well it looks like a well simulated MD80 Series, always been a fan and I like that we now have it. but I always say it is not visual that makes a product best, and it is true. as it is a good compromise. What i don´t like is for some reason it has its black smoke effect for some reason it eats quite some performance, cant figure out why. and the sound now I have been in the MD80 cockpit during flight and there is quite more noisy than here. some wind noise and gear door opening sound, as yes it is more quite than most planes as the engines are in the back. another thing is the add-on have been extended over quite different simulators, and need some external interface I have to admit i am not a huge fan, as it caused some compromises for installation. sometimes the sim hangs and don´´t want to start so be aware of that for MSFS 2024 at the moment we know it is early bird but just so you know. but besides that it seems like a okay solid product, fly from A to B and it does the job, Speed brakes seems a bit weak in effect

Blown away by how great this plane is. Virtual cockpit is amazing in MSFS202, MSFS2024 needs some more work, but still in beta stage. Well worth the money.

Worth every penny. This is at the top of the heap for aircraft simulations, the cockpit is a work of art.. I can't say enough about this plane. It is a joy to fly every time. I love it! You will want to buy a soundpack though, that is the one downfall; so add a few bucks to the total cost and pick up the FTSIM sound pack.

The Maddog is a really special airplane which is totally different from Airbus, Boeing etc. The learning curve is a bit steep but when you know how to fly this beauty it is really awesome. Leonardo delivered a really good product overall. Yes, the textures and the sounds could be a bit better but the system depth is abolutely amazing! Before the Maddog I used the CRJs for my short routes, but since I have the Maddog i never touched the CRJs again, because the Maddog is so much better! The FPS are good and the plane receives constant updates. I always have lots of fun when i fly this old lady. Thank you Leonardo!

i wasted my money. the most expensive and the worst plane for msfs.

Just buy it & have fun. Add expansion & sound to increase emersion. I have took her out twice & haven't landed yet, need I say anymore? High attention to detail that makes it stand out. Happy flying. Slainte, NavMAN68B

I hated this plane now I LOVE it!! Absolutely amazing and a lot to learn; need to be on your toes all the time but after flying Fenix A320 or 787 Dreamliner this puts you back to the 80ies where there is already a lot of systems in place but needs manual intervention and supervision. In terms of sounds: Yes, they are silent and you can download a separate soundpack which I didn‘t in the end as I watched a lot of cockpit videos on Youtube from the MD80 and it sounds similar (I think they sinulated noise cancelling headphones of the pilots) so I keep it as is. Love to fly this plane and can recommend but it takes a bit of time!
