Rebirth of IFR Rating

Hi Guys,
Looking for some advice.
After many, many years i need to regain my IFR rating.
What currently is the best practical manual and possibly flight sim available just to brush up on the basics ?

Cheers
Mark

Have a look at www. luizmonteiro. com (can't post URL with less than 10 posts). There are few simple to use, but really nice simulators for NDB (ADF), VOR, HSI, RMI. No need to install anything.

Significantly more time consuming, but interesting option would be installing flight simulator like X-plane 11 with pedals and yoke. If properly set and adjusted - it can be an invaluable training tool for the Instrument rating with ultra realistic scenarios and cockpits.
