Hi Guys,
For a while now, I've been using both RANT 3 and MS Flight Sim 2002Pro to help me refine my instrument procedures. Each piece of software has its own merits but I reckon you cant beat taking the Baron on a little trip in crap weather and getting it down on the tarmac using the panel only. Sounds daft but the feeling is fantastic (OK, call me an anorak ). Also use FS2002(with graphics cranked right up) to practise my VFR flying!. It really is an amazing piece of software. Dont rule out RANT 3 or 2000 as both offer the chance to practise on a combination of panel layouts which is great if your flying club has aircraft with vastly differing nav fits.
As they say, the choice is yours......
