## Description

Flight IFR Nav Trainer is a practical IFR navigation simulator designed for pilots and students to learn and practice procedures using VOR, HSI, RMI, DME, and wind. It supports unlimited IFR scenarios with configurable navigation aids, aircraft position, wind, and runway settings.

Instrument simulations include VOR, HSI, directional gyro, DME, RMI, ADF, and more. Basic controls cover heading, speed, course selector, DME, radial guidance, hide mode, and random location changes. The optional IFR trainer PRO expands with additional instruments, OBS/CDI, wind and runway trace modes, making it ideal for both students and instructors.

## Review summary

Flight IFR Nav Trainer is valued for practice between lessons, reinforcing forward planning and IFR mindset with realistic timing. Reviewers praise its usefulness for holding and DME arc practice, and overall educational value. However, it’s frequently criticized for pricing (not truly free), timing inaccuracies, and occasional bugs that hinder use.

### Pros

- Bridges the gap between lessons and reinforces forward planning in IFR practice.
- Helps maintain IFR mindset quickly when not flying for a while.
- Realistic timing and pressure feel, contributing to more controlled corrections.
- Useful for learning instrument procedures like holds and DME arc (hands-on practice).

### Cons

- Pricing and hidden costs: multiple reviews say the app isn’t truly free as advertised.
- Timing accuracy is inconsistent: simulated timing often deviates from real-world expectations.
- Bugs in the controls, such as persistent left-turn activation requiring a restart.
- Random aircraft positioning can bias most workouts toward a single VOR sector.
