## What is FLIGHT COMPUTER 3D?

You have access to two different design:
- One which look like a Flight Management System (FMS) with a lot of functions (wind triangle calculation, cross-wind, converter unit, coordinates converter, position and tracking.

- One in 3D design like a real computer (the best circular slide rule for all pilots) especially design for "learning".
 

"Continued use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life."

## Key features

- Flight Management System (FMS) interface
- 3D circular slide rule for learning
- Wind triangle calculation
- Cross-wind calculation
- Unit converter
- Coordinates converter
- Position and tracking

### 3/5 — not ready for prime time

*2014-01-03, version 1.3*

I'm intrigued by the "wind vector" side of the app, of which the analog graphic display is very good — but the digital output is bass-ackwards and "out to lunch". Maybe the code writer is using different conventions for understanding E6B functions — or maybe he dosen't understand at all — but the resultant wind vector digital output of the app (i.e., wind correction angles and ground speeds) makes zero sense.

(I could not care less about the circular slide rule side of the E6B; 90% of the time, simple calculations with a cheap calculator does the trick, anyway).

That said, if the user has a good grasp of how to use an E6B and disregards the "digital output" of the app, in a world of electronic E6Bs and all-in-one flight computing, the wind vector side can be a "quaint" throwback to simpler times which can be useful for teaching the classic E6B, and allow the student/user to gain an understanding of the effects of wind on an aircraft's ground track. Because of that, well, I actually like it.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 3.0 — 2022-02-05

- update for new IOS version

### 1.9.1 — 2018-04-30

This app has been updated by Apple to display the Apple Watch app icon.

- add FMS design for iPhone !
- bugs fixed
- iOS 11 update

### 1.9 — 2016-12-05

- add cross-wind calculation (iPAD);
- runway database (can find nearest airport, choose runway and compute cross-wind) - iPAD

### 1.7 — 2015-05-20

On iPad: an all new interface design which look like a Flight Management System (FMS) ! 
You can compute wind, cross-wind, access to a converter unit (coordinates, distance, speed, weight, pressure, temperature,volume) and have your live position and track. You have still access to the old 3D interface.

On iPhone: you can now insert value with a numeric keypad for a faster use.

More functionality will come soon !

### 1.4 — 2014-08-06

This apps was first design for people who wants to train at ATPL and particularly "real computer" use. But, in order to make it easier to use TRACK and Ground Speed could know be change.

Improved in formula have also been made.
