INFO
All aluminum and the only E6B computer with color coded lettering and beveled wheel for easy and accurate reading. Back side has a wind component grid and crosswind correction chart. Front side computes time-speed-distance-altitude-true airspeed- density altitude as well as conversions.
The very latest in air navigation computers include not onlyT/S/D and Dead Reckoning calculations, they now incorporate "Universal" capabilities.
What makes them "Universal"? You can now easily make the following conversions on your computer:
- FEET to METERS
- POUNDS to KILOGRAMS
- LITERS to U.S. GALLONS
- U.S. GALLONS to IMP. GALLONS, FUEL WEIGHT or OIL WEIGHT.
In addition to the above features, all E6-B computers are used for the following functions:
- Time/Speed/Distance computations
- Conversions to True Airspeed
- Variation Scales: Magnetic Courses
- Most computers also have Nautical/ Statute miles for use with WAC and Sectional Charts
- Time and Distance to Radio Station calculations
- Compressibility Corrections to True Courses
- Fuel Consumption calculations
- Off-Course and Drift corrections
- Enroute Wind Problems
- Mach Number calculations
- Slide Rule Mathematics
- Wind Components
- True Altitude conversions
- Dead Reckoning and Wind Effect
- Fahrenheit to Centigrade conversions
- Wind Triangle Solutions
- Statute/Nautical, Nautical/Statute conversions
- Flight Planning Wind Problems
