Hi there,
I am hoping to undertake my JAR Instrument Rating shortly and would welcome some suggestions for recommended reading/watching in preparation for this! Any comments would be greatly appreciated,

From my limited but successful experience:
Get the Never Get Lost book (RANT covers the software side):
http://www.nevergetlost.at/index.asp?sprache=english
at this point play with the Luiz Monteiro online simulator:
luizmonteiro - Aviation Calculations Home (http://luizmonteiro.com/)
Get hold of RANT:
Oddsoft Ltd (http://www.oddsoft.co.uk/)
Read Instrument Flying by David Hoy
Instrument Flying by David Hoy, 9781861267498 (http://www.crowood.com/details.asp?isbn=9781861267498&t=Instrument-Flying)
Watch The Complete JAR Instrument Rating by John Pullen - Available at www.TransPooleySportysEmporiums.etc (http://www.TransPooleySportysEmporiums.etc) as DVD.
Then take your poor overloaded brain to be soothed over Bedfordshire with Bonus Aviation, Cranfield.
Simples.

Thanks for your response - I have been thinking about buying the John Pullen DVD but it will be the most expensive DVD I have ever bought!
As for the other books/software you recommend- I'll look into them!

Oxford CBT IMC training. Jeppesen commercial and IFR dvds as well as the multi engine dvds. If you have a look on the pirate bay, you may find them all:ok:
