I have the Leonardo Maddog 2008 standard package, and was wondering if there's any reason to buy the Pro pack which is more expensive? I don't care about digital vs analogue engine gauges or the "other" FMC. The one in the standard package works great. Framerates are horrible compared to PMDG and other complex addons, but you do get a really really great sim.VC looks "OK", a bit cartoonish as you can see from the pictures in the Avsim review. Still better than Skysim or Coolsky's MD80/DC-9 packages. This one has 3D knobs and full VC functionality. You CAN fly it from the VC if you can live with the horrible framerates. This is one of those airplanes that'll have you switching back to 2D because those panels are so much better than the VC.Outside model is stunning, the prettiest maddog out there.I'd get it solely based on system modelling depth, which is unsurpassed. I don't regret buying it, even though I prefer flying in the VC even for complex models. You really can't do that much with the Maddog 2009.
Hi, Per!I have the Standard version as there seems to be nothing I would really need in the Pro extras.But in 90% this is the same addon, so I guess I can drop my three euros too.At the moment I fly nothing else but the maddog and I must admit I've spent a huge amount of money on addon aircraft.That includes the most famous products of course. I do like many of them (with DA Fokker 70/100 for short and Level-D 763 for long-haul being my favourites).Buying this bird was the greatest pleasure I've done to myself since a looong time.It is not an easy one to learn and you will lose some hair and sweatdrops for sure.And it does require reading manuals and procedures many times on end. But it is worth it all.The system modelling is absolutely best I've seen. The FDE seems gorgeous (as for the MFS of course).The 2D panel graphics is very nice and realistic. I won't tell you much of the VC since now I'm in the period of 2D flying (but from what I've seen it is at least OK). There are a lot of additional attractors like the Manager & Setup panel. It will let you not only set up all the details you wish (including flightdeck versions, refresh rates, key assignments and even boarding music) but also preprogram and save your flightplan (PMDG airac navdata) with fuel and load. And there is a huge choice of customizable failures if you like to practise them.The maddog world of internal sounds has really charmed me. You will hear so much in the cockpit and all the sounds were recorded in the real MD-8X flightdeck.There are also interactive (voice) flight attendants as well as ground communication with refuelling, powering and steered pushback options.To make it short (and not change it into a boring review) - that is (at least for now) my favourite toy for MFS2004.I never fly any aircraft for more than a month non stop due to getting bored. Now that's something different. No signs of boredom on the horizon.There is also a dedicated forum where you can learn a lot: =idxHowever, it's rather the 'customers for customers' type since the developers don't even have time to remove spam posts.Do I recommend it? And what do you think? :(
Vachon started his career as an amateur wrestler, participating in the 1948 Summer Olympics and winning a gold medal at the 1950 British Empire Games. He made the switch to professional wrestling and spent time in various promotions in the United States while occasionally teaming with his brother Paul. In Portland, Oregon, he received the name "Mad Dog" Vachon. In the early 1960s, Vachon became a main eventer in the American Wrestling Association. He was one of the promotion's all-time great heels, known for his wild style and intense interviews. He was a five-time AWA World Heavyweight Champion. Starting in the 1970s, Vachon became a fan favourite, particularly in his home province of Quebec.
After a stint in the World Wrestling Federation, Vachon retired from the business in 1986. The following year, he was struck by a hit-and-run driver, resulting in the amputation of one of his legs. Vachon was highly influential, especially in Canada, and was inducted into numerous professional wrestling halls of fame.

We have the rare and amazing opportunity to host maddog, Director of Linux International and a legend in the developer community. He has been working on Linux from the very beginning and is one of the most vocal and inspiring advocates of the Open Source movement.
Here we are in 2023, though, and St. Louis Anarchy is home to one of the year\u2019s better brawls, between Mad Dog Connelly and 1 Called Manders. It\u2019s a battle as elemental as any in professional wrestling, a man with a bullrope clashing with a man carrying a big \u2018ol length of chain, a chocolate-and-peanut-butter combination that appeals to me on an almost spiritual level. Why this match hasn\u2019t toured around the promotions where Manders isn\u2019t part of The Second Gear Crew yet is beyond me. I am also holding out hope that an enterprising promoter somewhere will have a eureka moment and remember that bullrope jawns and chain jawns are also pretty compelling when they\u2019re tagging together, too. Two great genres of professional wrestler! License to print money! Just floating that out there!
Part of this may be true. When he joined Brentford two years ago, Alan Pardew wrote to him: "Remember, Rome was not built in a day! - Pards". But the manager who oversaw affairs at MK Dons' training ground last week was the embodiment of patience and good manners. His deep understanding of professional footballers, their backgrounds, lives, feelings, fears and playing potential dominated his thoughts.
