Sporty's E6B Flight Computer
🇰🇷 KR LocalizedScreenshots
Description
Based on Sporty’s popular handheld E6B Electronic Flight Computer, the E6B app has been designed from the ground up to make the most of iOS on the iPhone, iPad and Apple Watch, and MacOS on Apple Computers. The software is based on the tried and true formulas and algorithms developed over the years by Sporty’s team of over 50 pilots. Its pilot-friendly design makes quick work of any navigational, conversion or fuel problem and it also performs conventional arithmetic calculations. The advanced timer/clock feature simultaneously tracks Zulu, Local and Home time zones. The timer counts either up or down, and will display an alert when reaching zero. 27 AVIATION FUNCTIONS -Pressure & Density Altitude -Planned True Airspeed -Heading and Groundspeed -Compass Heading -Leg Time -Fuel Required -Crosswind, Headwind and Tailwind -Cloud Base and Freezing Level -Actual True Airspeed -Actual True Altitude -Wind Speed and Direction -Groundspeed -Planned Mach Number -Required True Airspeed -Required Calibrated Airspeed -Distance Flown -Endurance -Fuel per Hour -Actual Mach Number -Percent Mean Aerodynamic Chord (MAC) -Hydroplane Speed -Required Rate of Climb -Specific Range -Pivotal Altitude -Top of Descent -Required Rate of Descent -Glide Distance 22 AVIATION CONVERSIONS -Celsius :: Fahrenheit -Nautical Miles :: Statute Miles -Nautical Miles :: Kilometers -Feet :: Meters -Pounds :: Kilograms -Avgas Gallons :: Pounds -Jet A Gallons :: Pounds -Gallons :: Liters -Hours/Minutes/Seconds :: Hours -Climb FT/NM :: Climb Percent -Climb FT/NM :: Climb Degrees CALCULATOR -Perform basic math without having to exit the application CLOCK/TIMER -Simultaneous tracking of Zulu, Home and Local time zones -Advanced timer counts up or down and operates independently so you can perform other calculations while the timer is running -Upon reaching zero in the countdown mode, a message will display no matter what app is active – a useful feature for missed approaches, switching fuel tanks, etc.

This app is simple and but not very effective. But it is greatly lacking in simple features and updates that would make it much more usable. Simple things like being able to add a picture to a weight & balance profile. So I can easily reference the aircraft’s CG limits. Lots of other ideas have been suggested and ignored. App has not been updated in years… maybe look somewhere else
It’s great for having some pre made tables, but it’s super difficult to navigate and find the answers that you need as many of the terms don’t match what you’re actually trying to to find.
The temp is minus 13° C today. What is that in Fahrenheit? Who knows, because this calculator doesn't allow you to use minuses. Otherwise, I use it occasionally to do quick crosswind and other calculations. It can come in handy but it has its limitations.
It wasn’t worth it to me. Sure, it worked, but the keyboard gets in the way and it’s not as intuitive or as capable that a digital flight computer should be. It was a little extra, but I spent the money for the one from the same folks who make more traditional products, and have for longer, and it’s a better product overall. I would skip this product if you’re choosing between a couple.
Please update the keyboard to be compatible with the mini floating keyboard. Leg time in tenths of an hour as well as mm:ss would be nice. A “next” button for selecting the next entry field would make things faster.
Calculates everything so much faster than I could with a hand held manual E6B. I am ferrying a PC-12 from HER (Crete) to PNE ( Philadelphia Northeast). It’s coming in real handy.
Good app for what it is. Is it being developed yet? No updates for a long time, interface really needs the ability to increase text size. For $10 app the lack of updates is kind of unfair.
This gives a host of aviation performance calculation tools.
I literally bought this app to save time doing the weight and balance calculations but they are not in this the app. Can I get my money back?
The calculator does what you’d expect, but it’d be nice to have a toggle to see the conversion factors and formulas used for some of the calculations for reference.
