- m0a.com When is the last time you actually dusted off the ole' manual e6b? In this technology driven world I bet it's been awhile. I strongly believe it's important to have a strong manual e6b skill set to fall back on during your training and beyond
I need an E6B that size just so I can see the numbers!
I know, right?!
Jeez I wouldn't want you as my pilot Magoo.
Get yourself the "circular" E6-B from Sporty's. They came in 3" and 6" models (apparently they don't make the 3" anymore). I had the 3" but couldn't see the numbers so I got the 6". Much better and the 'circular' E6-B does not have the annoying slide card. Just flip it over and all your wind calculating can be done by spinning disks.
You'd have to re-calculate W&B if you brought that in your flight bag.
🤣
That is so fucking funny 😐
@@antwanrandleel499 It really is 😂 you’re not though
@@swaviator9623 I don’t doubt swaviator finds it funny. Just proved my point boss man
Very easy to understand the concepts from this instructor. He makes the right emphasis when it is needed.
Thanks Jason - looked around the UA-cam for a while and this is by far the best way to get it across. Much appreciated.
Enjoyed the E6B video.....I remember when I was taking my written test.....this question was on mine. Keep up the good work......your teaching techniques are impressive.
Thankyou Jason, mate this video has really helped me a lot. I am a VFR pilot in Australia and just getting into navigation and I am using the same E6B Flight computer as you feature on this tutorial, thanks again and safe flying God bless
Thank you Jason you do a great job of teaching basic flight skills, you're a natural teacher keep up the great work.
Thank you for ALLLL the years you have put in on your lessons!
i have been looking for a way to understand this e6b calculations for a while, and you made it so easy, thanks a lot man you're awesome.
One smart & rich man said, -“ how do you distinguish a good teacher from bad? When you are actually learning you know that this teacher is good vs others who hide behind fancy terms/concepts which is also a potential indicator of their ignorance of the topic.” Well done sir! I actually learn when you speak.
well done, clean, clear, and professional
Already have my PPL, but this is a great refresher, and very much appreciated. Thank you.
I have my Navigation test this Tuesday, & this helped me alot! Thanks!
Lifesaver, your channel Sir is one of the best channels for learning to fly on UA-cam, heartfelt thanks for making this
Your explanation was extremely easy to follow with E6B in hand. Thanks !!
this is so complicated. Im sure once you learn it , it is easy but right now blowing my mind
Same here. Ill do like 10 problems and then itll probably make sense lol
Working towards my PPL, your videos are bar-none the clearest and best I've come across ! And the fact you're double wielding watches is the cherry on top !
Glad to help! Thanks for watching! Best of luck, Michael!
This video helped me out a lot... I am taking my FAA written on Good Friday 👍🏾‼️
I was typing E6-B on youtube and hoping you'd have a lesson on this topic.. You never disappoint THANKS JASON ! :D
man I Mexican im studying to be a pilot but really if I find something hard I just find your videos and helps me a lot...tks too much
You're such a wonderful instructor.
When I saw that E6, I was thinking: *wheel. of. FORTUNE!!*
The best thing about E6B is that it never runs out of battery, it doesn't hang and it never loses GPS signal.
yes but but it not as good as the battery type ASA CX-3 flight computer
Thank you very much, made this very simple.
Thanks Jason 😊 your always on top of the ball
Thank you for watching!
Lovely explained, simple English for quick grasp and understanding 👊🏽. I will definitely try the example question worked on the vid, i am still in my early phase of the PPL some of the theory speaks about the flight computer..........I have one and I have not used it as yet...........this clip makes the type of career I chose to be very interesting I really cannot wait to become a fully fledged pilot.............
I think this is great! Returning to the basics and technical airmanship is so necessary as we have proven over reliance on automation is very dangerous!!!!
Thanks for refreshing my memory.
I was calculating based on geometry & vectors to exact value. But, E6B makes easier to get value faster once I learned how to use it. He speaks clearly especially on numbers, which helps me to follow.
Nice , I can’t be more thankful
Nice helpful presentation clearly done. I like the way you emphasized TO not rely on electronics. . The FAA examiner insists on seeing this okd school skill manually done AND with good reason .
Super helpful video - very useful information - thank you for sharing.
This is very helpful and clear. Thank you so much.
awesome straight forward video
I got this actual question in Sporty's Study Buddy, and got it wrong because I guessed I haven't done calculations yet! but I aim to take my written this Feb so I better brush up! :)
*THANK YOU*
Awesome as usual.
You are amazing. Love your videos!!! So useful!!!
This man is a true teacher hats off to you 👏👍👨✈️🛫
nice vids
but it feels like you're yelling at me lol
Gotta turn down the volume lol
you are really the best . Thank you for sharing this.
Dont forget that when you are actually using this in flight, and not for just the question, Met wind is in magnetic so you gotta take variation in account before plotting your true winds.
Your videos are great
Thank you. You got a subscriber simply for the awesome teaching aide!
Thank you sir. Finally i could find the ETA.
Very clearly explained. Thanks.
THIS REALLY HELPED ME ,THANKS !!!!
Great video very helpful!
not a pilot, have only been on one commercial flight, but these slide rules fascinate me (I'm a bit simple too ha) I can just imagine the people who worked this system out toiling for hours and the absolute joy they must have felt when they got it all right, able to put so many skills in the hands of the laymen in one simple compact device.
must have been quite the instrument in its day.
awesome video.
Very informative, thanks!
Thanks, Jason!
Brilliant instruction video! Thank you.
You're very welcome, thank you for watching!
wow you made that look so easy and made to easy to fallow along as well I feel like an electronic e6b would not be any easier.
I'm a slide rule (and mechanical calculating machines) collector from germany (with a bit of fascination of aviation too) and I came to an E6B and asked myself "how does this freaking cool thingy work?" Now I know the basics, thank you for this, I'll calculate some routes now, just for fun. I hope I'll do my license some day, bit expensive here in good ol' germany, so I guess Gyrocopter would be a dream. It's a bit cheaper and I love Autogyros.
thanks for shering your knowlage. i lern a lot from this video . once again thanks a lot.
Thank you very much great job!!
Jason teaches like NOBODY I've ever enjoyed before!!!
Thanks Jason
Very useful, thank you.
OMG! You are the best!
Fixit Felix is telling us how to do it the right way like always😉😂Thank you so much.
Great vidéo thanks
Thanks nice explanation .
Very good and easy to understand. I love the large Computer, even without my glasses, i would be able to handle it :-D
So helpful thanks
Very good . Thank You! :)
Where can i gen a e6b that size?
Good Stuff!! Thanks!
Thank you sm! It really helped me :3
Glad it helped!
Man! You can explain, thank you.
Glad we could help! Thanks for watching!
Hi, you're excellent.
Thank You :)
Wow Jason, know you from Ken Herons channel. First time I've seen you from back in the past.
And there are the 2 watches :D
Great demo! Ah, the super wheel of mechanical mathematical bliss will be missed.
Wonderful, do you have videos on plotting questions ?
Thanks 👍
Clear as a bell!!!!!
i m french and i learn for ppl usa, thanks for all, i can understand this device
the double watch method on display here
Whoa. I live between Sandpoint and St Maries. Talk about random coincidence for me. Anyway great video thanks.
thank you!!
Thanks for watching!
Could Jason teach me an advanced use of E6B. like how to use the small windows to calculate ALT and airspeed correction. :)
apreaciate it thank you
for times when the gadgets/toys lovers run out of power. ...in the past I lost power on all my gadgets while boating in the dark and ended up on a sandbar. Good thing that the boats can take a break when the navigator looses the bearings. While driving in the big city, I often get lost when my GPS runs out of power, maybe I need to learn to use the paper maps
Do you have a tutorial like this for the newer E6-B8D computer?
*is it bad that even with that massive thing I still can't really see the numbers that well?*
obviously you cant be a pilot :))
what about Dist = GS X Time?
Can you tell me if these calculators are used by civil pilots or business aviation pilots?And if so, how often can you meet pilots with a circular E6B or SRP 5 and an electronic version?
Just started flight training. Is this mainly for pre-flight planning or will the checkride examiner expect one to demonstrate this in flight? Tried solving a problem while flying x-plane and it wasn't pretty. Can't find any UA-cam examples of pilots doing this in-flight.
As usual always great but I have one thing to please you need to zoom in more so we can see sharply and a little bit slower thanks
Thanks for the feedback!
Great!
Thanks for watching!
Great video. Thank you.
I'm also looking to get a purchase a E6B like that, can you please advise where I can find one?
Look for Kane Dead Reconing Computer on Ebay
Can this calculator be used on FAA Airmen Knowledge (written) tests?
Does this work with smaller numbers as well? For example, legs shorter than 10nm and time less than 10 minutes.
Anybody know where you can get a manual e6b that size?
great video and all, but why do you have two watches? I'm so curious and could not concentrate through the video:)
Hi Javier! Thanks for watching! Jason wears two watches because one is set to Zulu time and one is set to local time! Fly safe!
What size E6B would you like sir? They come in small, medium and large.
What if I brought the E6B you used for the video to the test? Would that be frowned upon?
Wish I could bring that E6B hes using here into the testing site with me.
Hey Jason may I ask? In real life how do you get your weather info, atis METAR etc?
Luis Veras On the ASOS, AWOS, or ATIS frequency.
