Flight Computer Pro

Far better than using the giant E6-B classroom demonstrator- you can open this on your iPad and cast it to a large screen. Perfect- thank you for making this app!! CFII

Only 4 stars due to lack of crosswind computations when landing. I have been playing with a lot of practice problems and have been enjoying getting back into the E6B. That being said, I cannot seem to find the way to compute, crosswind, velocities and angles. Perhaps I’m doing it wrong or just not seeing it. I have compared the wind card to other low speed wind cards and crosswind data appears to be missing. I like the app very much. If some color could be added similar to the ASA E6B or some of the circular E6Bs, that would definitely kick it up a notch and make using visually easier. Nice job. I look forward to any improvements.

A reset feature would be great.

The non-Pro version fits my screen nicely. (With some unused screen top and bottom.) The Pro version is too big for the iPhone 11 Pro screen. The computer hangs off the left and right edges and at the top. The Help button is almost completely obscured by the camera notch. Zoom and pan work but zoom does not shrink to show the entire computer. You need to resize the work space to fit the screen. I bet the problem is related to the missing advertisements. Setting the wind vector is a little squirrelly. Sometimes I mess up the wind vector when I reach over to set the course dial. This is app is not ready for big thumbs. How about a double tap to lock/unlock the wind vector? (With an appropriate change of line color.) I like how the wind vector is handled in the Sparkys E6B app. Two steps; dial in the wind direction, then set the speed. As soon as you set the speed, the wind direction is locked. Fat fingers can still mess up wind when setting the course. The screen size mis-match is a deal breaker for the iPhone 11/11 Pro... Minor stuff. A really good effort on your part. Terrific graphics. ADDITIONAL NOTE; A DAY LATER: I loaded the app on my very old iPad Mini. Interestingly the Pro version crashes but the regular version with advertisements runs nicely. (Still betting the issue is related to the adds.) Also discovered that my son’s iPhone 11 has the same screen size problem as my 11 Pro. This really is a great app. Fix the size issue for the newer iPhones and I’ll bump you to 5 stars. The aviation community needs this app. I hope you keep supporting it. I will be using the non-crashing version on my iPad mini to teach my son how to use his new E6B.

Very well created. It’s simple and straight forward. No ads! Functional for both using and teaching with. I no longer have my handheld.

I love this app. One thing to adjust - for newer iPhones, there is a portion of the display of menus at top that get blocked by the notch for the top speaker: I use an iPhone XS Max. It would also be nice to be able to zoom out further so the entire e6b slide rule can be displayed. Otherwise, a handy app!!!!

With iPad Landscape mode enabled, I can finally say goodbye to that tried-and-true metal monster lurking in my flight bag. The best e6b out there ...
