Hi folks,

I am looking for recommendations for a good instrument simulator. I don't care about the view out of the window, or how realistic the ground looks, I just want something that is very close to the look of the Airbus A320 series PFD and ND screens.

I want to practice my raw data instrument flying.

I did a search, but there is a lot to go through. Can anybody give me some ideas? I would want to run it on a Windows PC and/or an iPad.

Thanks.

Wilco Airbus Add-On for Microsoft Flight Sim or Pr3pare3d lets you set up select the pfd, nd, ew/d, etc and size them to your need. Only problem I have with the software is during the approach around 1000' the winds start going crazy and the speed starts increasing and decreasing like the AC is in WS. But I just intercept the ILS approach out about 3000' and it's enough time for me to practice the raw data ils approach.

There's a new software coming out that's good for training, but I'm not sure how tailored it is for raw data training. Link is below

Pity the new software package website wasn't proof read. AIRINC 424!

Uplinker,

Have a look at what is available for the X-Plane simulator. I haven't tried any Airbus simulations, but it is a great product and the flight models are usually very good.
