Clear and focused training
No distractions, just solid IFR fundamentals explained step by step.
Very intuitive
UI is easy to understand, even for early-stage IFR students.
Polished IFR training app
Really intuitive. The holding pattern visuals are clean and easy to follow, which makes the practice feel way more natural.
Response from developer
Thanks for your feedback! We’re so glad the app helps you with your practice.
Perfect IFR study aid
Great confidence boost before my real flights. The instruments respond like the real thing.
Great experience!
Getting back into flying after 25 years .. finding this app super easy to use and super helpful for my putting instrument skills back into action!!
Need to pay for everything!
This app is useless unless you pay, not worth it
Solid Overall
Solid app overall. Great to practice different scenarios if you have 5 minutes to kill. I would like to see ILS included in the simulator with a vertical aspect by adjusting descent rates.
Great IFR emulator
When used for an emulator not a simulator this training tool is excellent.
Valuable app for IFR pilots
Don’t hesitate to get and learn this app if you are seeking to be a proficient pilot. The map page has been expanded to have a greater fidelity with the actual approach environment. Improve your skills, use the app at anytime. The time your spend understanding this app will be time well spent.
Pay $33 to be nagged for a review every 5 questions!
You get so far in then you get nagged to review the app! How about taking your nag screens and shove them! When I get to all the features THEN ask me for a review! Not 10 minutes into the software! If I could rate it lower I would!
Buyer Beware!
Purchased an all-in one upgrade after viewing never ending in-game popup advertisements. Payment was accepted through the Apple Store over two weeks ago and I still do not have access.
Not happy
Bought the app a few days ago to aid with my IFR training. For the price tag of USD38 this app doesn’t seem to offer much value. There are no instructions whatsoever on how to get the most out of it. And the HSI doesn’t simulate what’s used in flight. I’m struggling to get value out of it. Would like a refund!

Really helpful but needs fine tuning
I am finding this app really helpful as I am doing my IR course now. However as we all fly different planes, the set 1.5deg p/s and 3deg p/s for rate one is only suited for planes that fly 100kt. As I fly 120kt in the holds it would be useful to have a setting to change the rate one turn, in my case it’s 21deg p/s. Allowing for different speeds and rate ones would then allow for correct WCAs. Would also be helpful to have a stopwatch in the trainer view and not only in the cockpit view. At the moment I’m having to switch quickly from one view to the other to manage the stopwatch which is not ideal.

Simulator hold is in the opposite direction
Hold should be given radial but the simulator sets course to the fix. I do not want to practice with this…
Recommended for any IFR students
This is my go to app for IFR instruction. I recommend it to all of my students. Practical review and practice of skills is key to retaining information and this app does a great job of helping to explain the concepts of the IFR world.
Useful app but uses a 2-minute hold
Uses a 2-minute hold instead of the standard 1-minute. No option for user to change this setting - now fixed and uses 1 minute hold.
Holding pattern trainer is incomplete
If you're trying to learn holding patterns, save your $6 and try a different app. This one teaches only one weird method of determining the entry, although there are several widely-used methods.
Worst of all, the app doesn't give you the ATC clearance like you will hear in flight. It gives you the inbound course - ATC will give you the radial to hold on, which is your outbound course. The pilot will need to determine the inbound course.
Absolutely overpriced and incomplete. Save your money and try the other app out there.

Almost perfect
Works really well in teaching some of IFR concepts that can make use of a graphical app. My only issue has been with holding patterns. They teach and in the quiz ask for “inbound” heading while in govt exams and real life youre given a radial to work with which is the reciprocal. So inbound 90 (heading east to vor) is reall hold on the 270 radial.

For a six years hold
When paying this amount of money for an app, you would expect a little more detail explanation, a little bit more satisfaction with the controls. All and all it has the feel like it was done by a very young inexperienced developer and when that is the case they shouldn’t charge so much money. SUPER DISAPPOINTED!!!

Cool!
Only used the RMI/VOR simulator, but it’s great. Will eventually buy the rest of the apps.
