Fly the Maddog HF2 Beta + EFB Announcement

Recommended Posts

The Leonardo team has released a new open beta for HF2. In addition they announced the new EFB launching soon that will now be a freeware addition, including performance calculator and charts.  👍

Let's talk about what the future has in store for you: the EFB.

Originally planned being part of a training expansion we are developing, we decided instead to release it for free as our "stay at home" initiative. The development is almost finished and beta testing will begin shortly.

The EFB has been developed with a concept of "apps" in mind and so far it features:

- Navigraph Charts app (subscription required);

- Full takeoff/landing performance calculator app;

- Full weight and balance calculator app, with the capability to import Simbrief/PFPX OFP.txt files directly in sim;

- Documents viewer app, which at the moment includes the full Operation Manual, Checklists and abnormal/emergency procedures;

Yup, there's at least one thing about every other add-on I have that I don't like. Except for the Maddog. I have no complaints. I had my first in-flight failure the other day. It was good fun. Lost part of the AC Bus and lost all instruments on the Captain side. Had to finish the flight from the FO seat. 😉

Good thing they can live on in sims for the foreseeable future. I will back up all the opinions above. This plane is well worth the investment.

Best plane I own and most enjoyable to fly.  Don't wait, just buy it.  And agree, sad to see them retire IRL.

I flew the Xplane version and I just love the sound. I also really love the way cockpit look. There is something classy about it.
