ASAs Color E6B Flight Computer

This E6B is dead awesome!!!! I love how it is colored. it is just not boring black and the labels on the wheel and out side the wheel are colored to which helps you that much more!!!!! I want to get another one!

This usability of this E6B is fantastic. I know a lot of pilots think that technology has passed this old workhorse by, but the fact is the FAA still expects pilot applicants to know how to do flight planning calculations, and using a mechanical E6B will give students a more intuitive grasp of the relationships among the variables than punching numbers into boxes on an electronic E6B will. I am a ground instructor, and I had used my old Jepp so hard Id mostly worn the paint off the aluminum. This new unit is sturdy, turns smoothly, and the color coded areas are wonderfully easy to read. Yeah, its a little pricey, but I believe Ill never need to buy another one. Well done, ASA. Great product. If they had found a way to sneak the light gun signal chart onto it (as they did with the ICAO equipment codes) Id find a way to give it six stars.

A little larger than I expected it to be but it’s not overly big. Computer is made of what appears and feels like high quality metal, the paint is pristine and is very easy to read. I hope to use this computer for the rest of my flying career.

it says , it metal but it arrived damaged , and when it is bended all the numbers and the scale is off not accurate

Ive owned three different E6-B computers, and this is by far the best! The center of the calculation wheel is dished so that chart or document edges just slide over the top, rather than getting stuck under the wheel. The markings are very readable, and the color printing is very useful as long as youre in a white light situation - just dont try to use this in flight under red cockpit illumination.

Very good product. It came with a nice vinyl case and an instruction manual.

Decent product,kinda expensive.

This E6B Flight Computer is a great product and the company has outstanding customer service. The colored markings make the calculator much easier to use when doing numerous flight related calculations. I have owned four E6B’s over the years and this is by far the best.

Good
