Radio Navigation Simulator is a precision 2D Flight Simulator, designed for iPad, iPhone & iPod touch, that enables pilots and students to practice, understand and become proficient in the use and management of VOR, DME and ADF instruments, all displayed with a Directional Gyro on a realistic Flight Panel, with other Flight Panel functionality.
Radio Navigation Simulator (RNS) is flown in a Synthetic Flight Environment, with real world derived aeronautical data, using latitude and longitude mapping, where realistic flight training can take place.
RNS is the perfect mobile tool for instructors to demonstrate radio navigation techniques, and for students to consolidate and self test. Experienced pilots will find RNS valuable to prepare for an instrument rating or proficiency test.
