Sparky's E6B Lite - Reviews, Revenue and Downloads - Apple App Store

Description

Sparky's E6B emulates a mechanical E6B Flight Computer. The app can be used to perform calculations, or to practice and learn how to use a mechanical E6B.

The E6B is an analog computer invented in the 1930's by Lt. Philip Dalton, USN for purposes of training and flight calculations.

The "slide rule" or "front" side includes a circular log-log scale that can be used for multiplication, division, fuel consumption and time/speed/distance calculations. There are also various conversions available, such as nautical-miles/statute-miles/kilometers, fuel and oil volume and weight.

The windows on the front are used for airspeed, various forms of "altitude' and mach number calculations.

The "wind" side is a vector computer used to determine flight headings, wind correction angle etc.

We hope you enjoy the Free E6B App, and find it useful and instructive.

Excellent

The size seems fine to me. The pro version has a bug: the bottom temp scale superimposes on the lower digital readings.

Completely broken in landscape and split view

Fails silently in split view and landscape, but it does not warn you that it is broken. It just gives you wrong numbers. This is very dangerous.

Good app

I like it, but I wish you could leave a small mark on it instead of the buttons on the bottom so the wind direction would be easier to use. And can we type in the numbers on the bottom? That would be way easier.

E6B

It’s great. Thank you.

Nice, but...

Too small / no way to zoom, that's my biggest issue. Also no support for landscape orientation or multitasking on the iPad where such a tool would be great next to / on top of e.g. ForeFlight.

Bug on the wind calc needs fixing

Nice looking app - bug on wind vector, will only adjust in the north axis.

Virtual E6B

For those wanting to learn or comfortable with the E6B.
