Description
This is a real moving 100% functional digital version of the classic flight computer.
On top of that, this a training app, designed to help you master the flight computer by solving it over and over again until you get it right.
Improve your flight computer skills!
An E6B flight computer is the circular slide rule calculator on the opposite side of your wind computer.
There are already many E6B apps out there and they all allow you to convert everything.
This app is very different.
It can solve conversions like many others but it is also a teaching tool:
* It replaces that list of practise questions in your study book.
How?
It generates those questions for you and then points out on the E6B how to solve them!
* Moves like a real E6B flight computer
* Generates practice questions for all those tricky conversions like CAS-TAS, MACH-TAS and True Altitude
* Show you how exactly to solve a conversion on the E6B itself!
You can choose the type of question
Are you training for your PPL, CPL, ATPL exam?
Experience learns that most candidates run out of time if they are not quick enough with the Flight Computer.
* This app will help you master your flight computer and develop those mad E6B skills.
* Use it to generate practise questions for yourself or your students
The wind side will follow in future updates

Ratings and Reviews
Great app
In response to the other review I don’t see why you’d use this as a functioning E6B… If you have your phone you’d just google the conversions. It is a fantastic training app to teach you how to use your physical E6B. It walks you through different calculations/conversions. I would definitely recommend.
At least the front side is right...
There's three bucks I can't get back. I thought it would have the full sliding scale and wind correction from the back of an E6-B, but no. Just a random problem generator for what? The actual E6-B I have in my other hand? And outside of the teaching mode, there is just a big gray calculator that's supposed to look like the FMS from an airline cockpit, but has zero functionality. You can punch in numbers, but there is no enter key, so I don't know how you would change data fields or calculate results. Looked good on the face, but that's all there is.
Poorly made
Purchased, in spite of the price, because of past pleasant experiences with other aviation apps in the store. This is junk and appears to be an amateur attempt at app development that should not have been made available for sale here. It will only confuse someone new to a E6B and its sale unfairly prays on the hopes of future pilots in training. The "developer" - a self purported CFI - should be ashamed of himself.
Unfortunately, there doesn't appear to be a decent stand alone E6B trainer app out yet. A metal E6B, a free Skyvector on-line chart, & the free download of the FAA's Pilots Handbook of Aeronautical Knowledge are the best, and cheapest, places to start. Good luck.
