-user reviews (from all markets)
***** Great to study instruments and saves lots of $$$!!!"
"***** I have been looking for an app such as this to teach my students"
"***** Before I used this app all this VOR orientation was so complicated, and now it's clear as ice!"
"***** Easy to use, perfectly designed and helping to understand basic navigation stuff. Highly recommended for student pilots, instrument applicant and CFI's."

- Test your NAV situational awareness with the test mode.
- Flight instructors: the perfect tool to help you easily explain and demonstrate complex radio navigation concepts to your students.
***Features:***
-Dual navigation displays.
-VOR\NDB trainer screen: Simulates VOR and NDB navigation using VOR, HSI, ADF and RMI displays.
-ILS trainer with both VOR and HSI displays.
-DME visualization screen - demonstrates how DME slant range distance is affected by ground distance and altitude.
-Test mode - generates phantom aircraft around the navaids. Your goal is to find the correct aircraft position.
-Drag and drop the aircraft and nav fix around the screen.

Great App to help develop tracking techniques. Add a rate one turn button and stopwatch and it would be perfect!
Excellent, and it has an RBI!

Wonderful as an instructing tool to introduce my students to VOR and NDB tracking and interception. Particularly useful is the Relative Bearing Indicator (RBI). Lots of training aircraft do not have a more expensive RMI, and if, like me, you teach NOT to use the rotatable compass card on the RBI (if you have one) because it’s too easy to forget to ‘twist’ it, then this I think is the ONLY app that offers a pure RBI.

Thank you for this nice review 👍
Amazing

Now that I have a good grasp of intercepting radials,this software does confirm that my knowledge is indeed true by simulating on my phone.A must buy. Saves you flying hours up with an instructor!
Stick to basic version

The PRO version doesn't offer all that much more over the basic. Would be more useful if it would give you radials to intercept and routes to fly for the tests. Save your money.
Developer Response
Thank you for the suggestions. At this time, the focus is on supporting and improving this version of the app (Pro). Therefore, the free (Basic) version is unavailable in the store but may return in the future.
