How to maintain IFR skills ? Which flight sim do you use ? Elite, Asa, MSFS ?

Hi,

I've completed the JAA CPL ME/IR with (f)ATPL course and I would like to maintain my IFR skills flying on my personal computer at home (it's cheaper).

My wish is to fly a light twin propeler engine (Cessna C310 for instance) and a B737 as well to maintain my skills on that airplane and get used to higher approach speeds (after MCC completed).

Is it possible and well done with one of Elite's products (ELITE Simulation Solutions - The PCATD Leader) ? Anyone has tried that before ? Any opinion ?

And what about ASA ? On-Top: ASA: Home Page ?

Is Microsoft Flight Simulator good enough ? (I would doubt that but truly I never used it).

Thanks a lot for your advices,
Emmanuel.
