As an ex Instrument Rating Instructor I've used many different platforms for radio navigation training. Radio Navigator is by far the best. It's full featured, smart, interactive and makes learning and visualisation SO MUCH EASIER. My IR would have been a lot easier if this was around at the time!!!

If you are wondering if it is worth it, I guarantee it is! It is by far the most comprehensive radio navigation training tool out there. From guided lessons, practical exercises to just flying. If you were in the classroom or in the aircraft wondering how do I do join this hold, intercept this track or how do I correct for this wind, this app is for you!

I used this to practice some raw data before an airline assessment sim, and it was super helpful! Would recommend for any stage of flying!

Genuinely very impressed. All of this for £10 a month?!

Truly the software I wish I had during my training... The best way to learn and with support from an IR instructor if you need it - absolutely fabulous. I am jealous of anyone who is currently going through the IR and has found this app. All the stress of learning how to hold for the first time in a bumpy aircraft in the middle of summer could have been reduced to nothing with a bit of practice on here.

The most realistic and up to date training aid I've seen for radio navigation training. Using instrument graphics that actually resemble what you'll see in a modern, glass cockpit.
