Powerful, intuitive E6b Calculations for ipad
I am a student pilot who dislikes using handheld E6b calculators and instead loves the Gyronimo E6b Pro Pad app. It is quick, easy and intuitive and also allows you to visualize classical E6b flight computer calculations if you so choose. My favorite feature is the course plotter which instantly gives magnetic compass headings calculated using authentic isogonic magnetic variability. My only complaint is the city/airport location search bar, which in my ipad pro doesn’t seem to do anything at all. I’m hoping to update this through customer support.
P.S. It would be a great addition if multiple winds aloft could be somehow entered to calculate optimal cruising altitude for best groundspeed.

Graphical E6B Precision
It appears there is a slight misalignment of the marks on the A and B scale. Or maybe it’s the display on my iPad. Checking simple conversions such as kg to lbs results in a small but noticeable error.
Other than that, wonderful app.

Exceptional teaching and operational tool
This is one of those tools that is useful from Student to ATP, and from Ground School to Flight Level.
Incredibly Useful
This is the most useful aviation app I’ve found, aside from my EFB and another great weight & balance app by this developer. It takes a very complex set of calculations, presents them in a way that makes sense, and makes the user interface touchscreen simple. I really like the conversions that are visible at all times in the calculator screen. The ability to use the old school whiz wheel is very cool, I wish I’d had that when I was a student!

The app
I’m using the app just recently. The first thing I noticed is that when you planning route you need to calculate each single leg separately. The app is not showing all the headings and times for all the route at once on one screen. This one future is missing in my opinion. Apart from this very helpful app.

Excellent!!!!!!!
The best E6B ! Great tool for flight planning . Thank you do much for creating this amazing tool . Great for pilots makes it so much easier!
E6B conversion rings mismatch a little.
On the conversion side (slide rule) of the Classic E6B, the outer and inner rings don't match perfectly across the full range of values so this introduces small errors for many calculations. This could present a danger for altitude calculations. Unfortunately this fault is likely to void the use of this rather good product for professional aviation. Hopefully this can be corrected fairly soon.

Awesome app!
As a student pilot I find this app extremely useful. It does just as it says in the description. I've been using it for a while and I'm still discovering new features. The user interface is very intuitive. The animated E6B mode teaches you how to use the thing graphically, at least for me it's so much easier to learn it this way. You get your money's worth with this app.

Works great, does what it says!
So I have been a pilot for 25+years. I am always re figuring out my medal e6b. Well not anymore. This app is straight forward and easy to use plus it's got everything I need. Thanks
Hate it
Can I have my $ back
A must have in your flying tools.
This is a great tool for experienced as well as beginners. By far the best in it's class. Highly recommend this tool.
Amazing tool!
Highly recommended!
This is a cool app
Although this app is expensive (as compared to other apps that do the same basic things), this app go above and beyond to not only do the calculations, but to teach you how to do the calculations at the same time. The support for this app is excellent!! The video's that demonstrate how to use the app also teach you the process to set-up the calculations and complete the process. This app is worth having if only to keep your basic skills sharp!

App shuts down
I bought this app it was working fine until the last update . Ever since i updated this app it keeps shutting down automatic .. Pls fix this issue
Awful!
A complete waste of money. I bought this app to use the E6B in manual mode and it does NOT work!
The wind dial does not move, the pencil and dot function work around one try in 10 and the wind slider barely moves.
The user interface is also very cluttered and difficult to navigate.
Very expensive and misleading, despite some nice screen shots to allure you. Stay away and buy something cheaper.

Fantastic
This is a fantastic app I like it very much and it's good for teaching students because I'm a CFI.
learner
For those who read my previous rating please disregard. After submitting it, I immediately received a message from Clause who gave me the support I needed to learn about the program. I now believe this is an excellent tool for the learner and my instructor also rated it superior. Thanks Claus.
