How to Use an Electronic E6B in Under One Minute for Flight Planning

Welcome to another flight training video. Today, I will show you how to use an electronic E6B flight computer for cross country flight planning. This includes calculating wind correction angle, ground speed, leg time, and fuel requirements- all in under a minute. If you have any suggestions for future topics or questions please leave them in the comments.

Shouldn't compass heading be 108 on the paper? 0:21

Hi, i just tried to use it for the leg time calculation using a distance of 7800ft and a ground speed of 600ft/min but the result shows up as 13 hours and not 13 minutes how it’s supposed, how can I fix it. Please help 🙏🏻

I was able to replicate your issue by putting 7800 and 600 in directly. When I put it into my calculator I get 00:13:11 which is 13 minutes and 11 seconds if I convert it to knots and nautical miles. 600 ft/min is about 6 knots. 7800 feet is about 1.3 nautical miles. The calculator is set up for units per hour, not per minute, so if you did feet per hour that gets you the correct answer as well. Personally, I recommend converting everything to nautical miles and nautical miles per hour (knots) to keep things consistent, but as long as the units match and your speed is in units per hour it should still work

Just got mine. However, can you slow down your presentation please. Thanks fellow pilot

[@theshatzer885]

You can adjust the speed of the video in the settings. Click on the settings wheel icon, then click on "playback speed." Then, adjust to your preference.

If you could, just slow down a little.
