Fred - sorry, I may have misunderstood.

When you suggested various teaching aids, I thought you wanted to LEARN things - but now you suggest you have bought the "confuser" - which most buy as a means to PASS THE EXAMS.

There is a great difference at the end of the course between those who have studied the subjects and those who have used the confuser.

I know I'm going to gte flamed for having said that - especially by all those who have used the confuser to qualify for a licence - but I also know it's true, you do not LEARN the stuff you have temporarily memorised from the confuser.

(Evo - I would have thought that RANT was perfect for IMC rather than OTT. I know I hadn't a clue about tracking NDB's on fixed card ADF's - even with an IMC rating. An hour or two of RANT - with the right instruments selected - would have solved that problem).
