ASA's new interactive software tool provides an enhanced understanding of instrument procedures.

The Instrument Procedures Tutorial by David Howarth is an innovative "visualization simulator" that graphically illustrates the practical application of instrument concepts. Unlike the usual theory-based book, its interactive graphical interface brings seemingly arcane instrument concepts to life. Each animated on-screen demonstration uniquely displays cockpit instruments, applicable charts, and overhead view together to form a total situational picture.

The proliferation of glass cockpits and moving maps has seemingly diminished the importance of what has almost become a lost art: the interpretation of raw data to create a corresponding situational picture. Yet the ability to create a multi-dimensional picture in the mind's eye remains one of the most important skills necessary for safe and efficient instrument flight. Today's increasingly complex flight environment simply demands it.

Instrument Procedures is a complete how-to system on instrument flight, navigation, procedures, emergencies, and more, featuring a comprehensive 4-hour software tutorial and a full-color manual. It's the perfect complement to any instrument training curriculum or refresher for instrument-rated pilots. Students, instructors, virtual aviators, and even experienced pilots will benefit from this practical visualization tool.

Use it to:

• Improve visualization and situational awareness skills.
• Learn instrument procedures and approaches with simple how-to demonstrations.
• Practice radio navigation techniques with the VOR and ADF Navigation Simulator.
• Review efficient methods for safely conducting instrument procedures.
• Learn hold entries and how to correct for wind drift in a hold.
• Understand the intricacies of a DME arc.
• Gain a mind's-eye perspective on the cockpit instrumentation, approach plate, and overhead map view simultaneously!

PC and Mac compatible.

Customer Reviews For ASA Instrument Procedures Tutorial Software: Write a review

Thursday, January 21, 2010 A must to start IFR, but simulator need a little improvement by Byeong from Los Angeles CA USA  Pros: Practical tutorial, nice illustration Cons: Simulator need improvement Review: It is a very practical tutorial to start IFR with. Illustrations are nice and self-explanatory. But the simulator in the CD need some improvement to practice whatever learned in each chapter. Wednesday, April 01, 2009 Great Product! by A Customer from   Pros: Software and Book included, concise information, easy reading Cons: could focus some more on GPS approaches Review: I found what I was looking for! The software provides great situational awareness as the animations of approaches are done in a step by step manner with reference to approach plates. The book is also provides good basic information and will serve me as a great refresher tool in the future! Tuesday, January 13, 2009 Not quite what I expected by A Customer from San Juan PR USA  Pros: Good basic information Cons: Not interactive Review: The tutorial is very basic and there is virtually no user interaction. I was looking for something to help me brush-up on my instrument rating but the material is more geared toward 'ab initio' IFR students.
