    Rated 4.14285714286/5 based on 7 customer reviews
    Product description: Our VOR*SIM™ makes mastering VOR navigation simple and inexpensive. Our software is an interactive, graphical VOR simulator that allows the user to drag the aircraft anywhere, rotate the OBS knob and locate aircraft positions exactly as it would be done in the aircraft. The software also allows the user to switch between traditional or original versions of the OBS instrument. Other features include an OBS demonstration, DME tool, VOR transmitter demonstration and explanation, and a complete VOR history and explanation assistant. There is also a "Find Aircraft" feature, which randomly positions the aircraft, then hides it from view so that the user can locate its position. This software was developed by a veteran FAA Certified Ground Instructor and is in use in FAA Part 141 Ground School courses. (PC only)

    If you are a student struggling with VOR concepts, this is worth the money. It helped me go from a little confused to expert in about 15 minutes. It is sort of like playing with a working VOR at your desk.

    Ok for the money this is an OK product nothing too complicated what I found is that teh REAL INFORMATION is in the help section! I ended up copying all the help files and taking screen prints of each screen for each help section and edited it all into a booklet (took about 30 minutes) made it a great learning tool. That's my complaint if you will if they did this as a pdf like I had to do in booklet format it would be easier to use and learn from.

    Pros

    I learned more from this simulator than I did from reading two different written explanations. It simplified the concept of VOR for me.

    Cons

    I had an issue installing it and I needed to add a file to my hard drive. This install bug should be rectified.

    General Comments

    Great Value and a nice learning tool!
