About this app

The E6BJA Flight Computer is a powerful software-based digital computer for practising performing aeronautical and flight calculations speedily and easily. Inspired by the Whiz-wheel (e.g. E6B, CR-1, CRP-1, CRP-5 etc), an ingenious and excellent teaching tool, and by the more modern handheld electronic digital flight computer, the E6BJA software app is rich in features, powerful and efficient. It can be installed on a phone or tablet --- for convenience --- and has a number of advantages over the whiz-wheel; calculations are simpler and quicker to perform, with less margin of error, better reproducibility and is less error-prone. It has a clear and intuitive user interface.

The E6BJA calculator currently provides the following features:

E6B wind triangle, True Air Speed, Ground Speed visualiser
Wind Triangle solver
Wind Correction Angle
Holding Pattern Computer
Descent Calculator
Fuel Calculator
Weight, Arm and Moment Calculator
Pressure Altitude
Density Altitude
Cloud Base
Dew Point and Relative Humidity
Mach Number
True Air Speed (TAS) to Indicated Air Speed (IAS)
Indicated Air Speed (IAS) from True Air Speed (TAS)
Ground Speed (GS)
Load Factor from Bank Angle
Turns Calculator
Aviation Units Converter

Ratings and reviews

Great app, thank you for making this! My only critique would be the display size in the app is slightly larger then my screen size, so I have to scroll left/right to decrease the window size. I'm using a Samsung Galaxy s20 ultra. But I'm surprised you're not charging for this app, it's definitely worth it!

Incredible app. I absolutely love that the equations for each calculation are included!

A useful app to give the same functionality as the pilots whizz wheel. Handy for in cockpit use quick, efficient and less prone to human error as opposed to the whizz wheel. Good to also confirm your whizz wheel calculations, if you decide to gradually get used to it (like me). Thanks to developer for creating this.
