Make IFR flight training simpler - the app that flight instructors use to demonstrate radio navigation and students use to learn, consolidate and self test. "The best IFR training app for the iPhone/iPad. It's very, very good." "A wonderful app, easily worth the price. the design is excellent and very well thought out." "Does pretty well what it says it does. A useful tool for teaching/learning VOR/ADF navigation. Proposed updates make it sound that future versions will be even more capable. Good, prompt support." "Great learning tool." "Fantastic trainer." Experienced pilots will also find the simulator valuable to prepare for an instrument rating or proficiency test. Review by an experienced airline pilot & aviation blogger, who utilised RNS for a Boeing 737 check ride. "Little did I know that the 30 minutes I spent playing with his application was the reason I flew the approach so awesomely." http://www.flight.org/blog/2012/04/06/ipad-app-review-radio-navigation-simulator/.
