Cheap simulator in Europe for IFR skills?
Hello,
Anyone knows a decent simulator for IFR skills training? Donīt need to be certified, I donīt really care about logging hours, just need to get my skills up to level.

Newcastle Airfield (EINC), Ireland, not too far from Dublin, has a Redbird FMX, full motion sim, 1h including an instructor is 50eur. I don't think you'll find anything cheaper than that

I used Microsoft Flight Sim X (Ģ5 used copy from eBay) with a Ģ15 joystick.
Spent a number of hours on it before my first IR renewal, and again before my sim check for my first airline interview. Passed both without a problem.
It might not be the same for everyone, but in my opinion a "real" sim is not worth the extra time and money.
