Outstanding, a real force multiplayer in the cockpit

This is a fantastic app, the ability to set ratios and angle of descent is far superior to any FMS that I have come across. I truly love that there are developers like this committed to advancing the art and skill of piloting without a stupid computer telling us what to do. This app is for the most important component in the aircraft, the pilots brain. Thanks again, and the white paper document is fantastic. God bless.

Just what I’ve been looking for

Both sides of the calculation can b performed in one move. It is so easy to use. Absolutely fantastic. If there was a tangible card wheel on sale I would buy it also.
