A Good Back-up

  • By Charles from Seattle WA USA on Tuesday, September 19, 2017
  • Pros: Good back-up fo computer E6-B
  • Cons: None
  • Review: It took me awhile to catch on to its use. But after figuring out how to work it, I came up with the same answers as my computerized E6-B. So, be sure to take one when you're going cross country, in case your computer batteries run out.

Precision tool, pleasure to use

  • By Scott from Binghamton NY USA on Friday, July 06, 2012
  • Pros: precise motion, clear easy-to-read color graphics
  • Cons: none
  • Review: High quality aluminum construction yields precise easy-to-read solutions. If you're a student pilot like me and suffering w/ the poor quality plastic E6-B that came w/ your student pilot starter kit, get this tool. I also purchased an electronic E6-B and this tool yields faster solutions and never needs batteries.

Well Built

  • By LeRoy Moore from Mount Vernon KY USA on Wednesday, May 15, 2013
  • Pros: Well Built.
  • Cons: None.
  • Review: It's nicely built and fairly easy to read. I like the multi-colored E6 it makes it a little easier to read. When buying aviation stuff you need to take into consideration just how long you will use this stuff. This one will do the trick.

  • By David Wayne from Pewaukee WI USA on Wednesday, September 25, 2013
  • Pros: Best investment for long-term service.
  • Cons: Non observed
  • Review: Easy to access and use in all light conditions and does not take up valuable space.
    Computations are faster, taking less input activity than some electronic units that are difficult to read due to glare or lighting environments. Best of all - no batteries!

  • By lloyd from baltimore MD USA on Tuesday, November 06, 2012
  • Pros: easy to use
  • Cons: none
  • Review:

    I like it very much. It would be even better if it had info strip which tells you how to figure the various flight info instructions on the ESB itself instead of having to read the booklet.

    Maybe the company could put that on the e6b, may have to make the circle a little larger.

Good quality computer.

  • By A Customer from AL USA on Tuesday, August 05, 2014
  • Pros: solid, good quality
  • Cons: none
  • Review: I didn't so much buy this computer for my own flight planning but rather to re-familiarize my self with everything it can do. I am a CFI and just recently started back teaching. This computer has been very helpful in that respect. It is the first aluminum computer I have ever purchased as my old paper one had seen better days. It is definitely a quality flight computer and built solid. I wouldn't hesitate to buy another on if I lost it.

Jealous

  • By Jon Mitchell from Kansas City, MO on Monday, February 05, 2024
  • Pros: Color background make it easier to read more accurately.
  • Cons:
  • Review: My son has just started his flight training, and I gave him his choice of flight computers. I saw mine, which is 30 plus years old and plain and said he wanted the color version. I first ordered it from Amazon, twice. Both arrived bent. Finally ordered from here, arrived quickly and with no damage. I started to look this one over, and am thinking about retiring my original E6-B. There were a couple of minor differences between his and mine, but overall still what I grew up using and still use just to keep up my skills. Batteries die, technology fails at the worst times, but old school tools still work.

Stone Axe Simple

  • By Luther from Burkburnett TX USA on Wednesday, September 23, 2015
  • Pros: Easier to manipulate, easier to see the indices
  • Cons: Haven't found any so far!
  • Review: This E6-B replaced a card board E6-B that came with a study course and the aluminum one makes a world of difference in the operation of this simple computer!

    The color sections are really an asset and the black printing seems more crisp and clear than my first E6-B.

Well Built, Useful Tool

  • By MATTHEW from Pasadena CA USA on Tuesday, February 02, 2016
  • Review: Tool functions well, high quality aluminum. Makes calculating wind correction easy once you understand the directions. That being said, instructions could be a little more straightforward. Better yet, make a short instructional video on how to use it for all of the features.

I would buy this product again

  • By Matt from New Albany OH USA on Monday, March 11, 2013
  • Pros: Precise (compared to cardboard version) and much easier to use.
  • Cons: Should be in a "hard" case so it would not bend.
  • Review: Much better then the (cardboard) product that was furnished with the class materials. (BTW, I don't give 5's as I don't know what else is out there and I only have limited experience with this type of product).
