RANT box

Please note that on installation of your new copy of RANT XL Release 4 the user licence for RANT XL Release 3 is cancelled and further activation codes for it will not be issued.

Why should I upgrade to Release 4?

RANT XL Release 4 is the result of an agreement with Jeppesen Sanderson Inc allowing the use of their approach plates and charting as featured in Jeppview©. In addition, the previous version of RANT was written using a 2007 vintage programming language which had become increasingly unsuited to the new versions of MS Windows; the time had come to move to an up-to-date language and so the complete package has been moved to Delphi XE3. This has involved exchanging old and sometimes flakey 3rd-party add-ons for integrated programming units. The benefits of this move to the user are a more reliable program, improved picture handling, better icons and full Windows 11 compatibility.

Please Note: There is no upgrade path for owners of earlier versions of RANT (RANT 3, RANT 2000, RANT XL Releases 1 and 2). You can buy a copy of RANT XL Release 4 here.
