    Sporty's Electronic E6B Ultimate Guide shows you how to use the E6B in great detail. Timestamped chapters are in the comments below. In this video, I show you the steps you'd use, in the order you'd use them, to plan a flight. This flight computer can do everything you need, except fly the plane. Batteries might have been included. I've probably put in more editing effort with this video than any other. I hope you all feel that this video is helpful as you learn your way around the Sporty's Electronic E6B.

    isn't CAS just IAS corrected for measurements error? for installed equipment and how it is installed in specific airplane?
    So calculator CAN'T have any idea about IAS in your airplane.
    isn't in reality all lift forces affect airplane depends of CAS?
    but we measure them with errors so we have IAS. the same plane, the same errors. so easier is showing ex stall speed in IAS directly what instrument reads and don't care to much what is correct ( CAS ).

    Ha ha you just convinced me "not" to get one of these lol! You could easily make a mistake on these, not realize it and kill yourself: What a mess!

      That’s funny. Yeah, if you’re comfortable with the rotary one, then certainly don’t get this. It’s a steep curve, but I wanted it so I could do basic math and all those pesky multi part test questions faster. I still love my traditional E6B

      @@121Mike I've never gotten along with computers, the old calculators are fine but as soon as I have to do things within someone Elses logic based orders of actions I hate it. Like a file cabinet or tax files it's always that I'd have set it up differently. The E6B is both Ingenius and logical.
