Get a copy of FS2004 or FSX, a cheap (£10) joystick - no need for the fancy yoke - and practice the procedures.
I will second that FS is an excellent sim which can be quite addictive.
You do need a fast computer to handle it. I would not recommend the standard aircraft which have poor flight dynamics but do look at some of the addon companies who make models for download which have a far better feel.
You can fly your procedures in realistic weather and break out at minima.
I was heavely into FS at one time as well as in the development side and loved it. Now in London I only have a lap top so havent used FS for a couple of years.
Some people go the whole hog and have multi engine controls some even more than that but above all it is an excellent training device and useful for keeping you current.
