Recommended books/DVDs for IR prep

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

Get hold of RANT:
Oddsoft Ltd

Read Instrument Flying by David Hoy
Instrument Flying by David Hoy, 9781861267498

Watch The Complete JAR Instrument Rating by John Pullen - Available at 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
