The pilot's choice among flight planning software now comes in a VFR version. FliteStar VFR v9.0 is no bare-bones flight planner. This basic version of FliteStar gives you comfort and flexibility in flight planning with unparalleled precision and speed. Customize charts by selecting which items you want displayed, choose to show single or multiple charts, toolbars, information bars and more. Optional charts on CD-ROM can also be purchased to show additional VFR chart detail.
FliteStar gives you two ways to plan your flight:
1. Chart View: if you can play "connect the dots," you can use FliteStar. Just zoom in or zoom out on the chart--all around the globe--and build your route by clicking on airports, navaids and other waypoints. Once connected, waypoints can be added or deleted by simply tugging the rubber band-like course and moving it with your mouse. FliteStar then instantly recalculates your flight plan. Want to detour around a tall mountain? Grab the route and bend it...FliteStar does the rest. VectorPlus Mapping allows you to select from map "themes," including replicas of Jeppesen low-altitude or high-altitude enroute charts or even VFR planning charts that show terrain.
2.Need Some Guidance? The new Route Wizard guides you step-by-step through each phase of the flight planning process.
The powerful search function lets you search for airports and navaids by city name if you don't know the airport or navaid identifier. Choose the route option that best meets your needs: high/low-altitude airway (IFR version only), VOR-to-VOR, direct, or great circle. FliteStar lets you pre-select your preferred "leg lengths". New routing algorithms make FliteStar's routing faster and more accurate, and FliteStar will now route you around (or over or under) 15 different types of "restricted" airspace, as well as FIRs/UIRs. Competing products either don't offer airspace routing at all, or don't take into account the effective altitudes of the airspace. After using the Wizard to build your route, you can now add or remove landing points.
RANT XL Release 3 is the latest, fully Vista compatible version of the Radio Aids Navigation Tutor and provides all the ground training a trainee pilot, who has never seen a VOR or NDB, needs to progress to being able to navigate the most complicated radio-aids navigation task - whether en-route or in the terminal area. Here is a completely re-engineered package which contains the tutorials and exercises that have made RANT so popular as a training tool but which has many new features and has been brought right up-to-date with photo-realistic instruments, including the Bendix/King Silver Crown range, and actual en-route, approach and departure charts, in association with Navtech/EAG Aerad. A full suite of context-sensitive help pages completes the product. RANT XL runs on computers using Windows ME, XP or Vista, with 64 Mbyte RAM, 16-bit colour and screen resolutions of 800 x 600 pixels or more. For enhanced visuals 1 GByte of RAM and minimum 1024x768 pixels resolution are required.
From the start of the JAA-ATPL examinations, Oxford Aviation Training has entered over 1,400 students for more than 20,000 individual examination papers. Their unrivalled experience is brought to you in this compilation of over 2,000 JAA-ATPL style questions. You can test yourself by individual subject, or sub section of the syllabus, or attempt a JAA style examination paper. All the questions are are as close as possible to the JAA-ATPL question bank, and with over 2,000 questions to choose from repeated use will give the best possible preparation for the official JAA examinations.
The study of Aviation Meteorology is a fundamental part of any pilot training. A thorough understanding of weather theory and the ability to interpret weather briefing documents are absolutely essential to all private pilots to ensure that, throughout their flying careers, they can make informed and accurate decisions about how prevailing or forecast weather conditions will affect flying operations.
Above all, a full understanding of how the weather influences aircraft operations is crucial to flight safety.
This interactive, multimedia computer-based training (CBT) course in Aviation Meteorology will enable private pilots to learn more effectively and enjoyably than ever before, all they need to know about the weather, in order to fly safely and expeditiously, and to pass their JAA PPL or UK NPPL theoretical knowledge examinations.
This interactive training course teaches the subject of Direct Current or DC Electrical theory and its associated systems and components up to the standard required by the EASA Air Transport Pilot’s Licence syllabus. The course has been developed by aviation specialists and multimedia designers at Oxford Aviation Academy, one of the world’s leading professional flying training schools.
Though the course is meant primarily for student professional pilots, it will also be valuable to student aircraft engineers as a high quality introduction to DC. We hope, too, that General Aviation pilots who wish to expand their knowledge will find much to interest them here. Qualified airline transport pilots might also find much to interest them, in terms of both fulfilling recurrent training requirements and improving their knowledge of DC. In order to assist students in their preparation for the ATPL examinations, this course includes a large number of EASA ATPL-style questions and answers.
You can be confident that in using this course you will benefit from Oxford Aviation Academy’s unequalled experience in successfully preparing thousands of students for the EASA ATPL examinations.

Oxford Aviation Training and the Met Office have developed a self-teach, media-rich, interactive Computer Based Training (CBT) course of theoretical and practical Meteorology aimed at both student and qualified pilots. Instruction is up to JAA ATPL level, but as the course is designed for beginners it is suitable for CPL and PPL pilots, too.
The main aim of this Computer Based Training is to give pilot-oriented training in Aviation Met theory and to teach pilots to use this theory to interpret met forecasts and reports in order to plan safe and expeditious flying sorties. The secondary aim of the CBT is to teach pilots how to extract and interpret met information from the Met Office's web site.
The classic dead-reckoning navigation computer has been used by pilots world-wide, since before the Second World War, to solve navigational and flight planning calculations quickly and easily.
By mastering the classic navigation computer, pilots discover how to solve navigational problems from first principles, and learn how to visualise the fundamentals which underpin the whole art of navigation.
For the student working towards a Private Pilot's Licence, three important test hurdles have to be cleared. They are the two flying skills tests- General Handling and Navigation - and the theoretical knowledge examinations, often referred to as the "ground exams."
Passing the ground examinations requires two types of preparation. You must, of course, learn thoroughly all the subject matter in the different theoretical knowledge disciplines, but then, before you sit the actual examinations, you must also familiarise yourself with the level of difficulty and style of the PPL examination questions themselves. This PPL Examination Preparation CD-ROM from Oxford Aviation Training - one of the world's leading pilot training schools - enables you to do just that.
In addition to all the questions from the complete set of the renowned OAT/Transair PPL Ground Training CD-ROMs, over 540 new questions have been added to this Exam Preparation CD-ROM, making over 1550 questions in all. Using the CD-ROM, you can test yourself on individual examination subjects, or attempt a complete PPL-style examination paper. The CD-ROM will mark your work, give you your result and indicate the questions that you have answered wrongly, inviting you to select the correct answer
