Great tool to use for understanding

If your having trouble understanding holds this is a great app to help understand how to interpret which hold pattern to use.

Simple and Easy

This is exactly what I wanted. No frills, no bs, easy to use. Really helped me to visualize and understand holding patterns.

Amazing app.

Throw away the E6B. This is the only thing you need.

...

Great app would be nice if they add more VOR features like ( To- from) flag

Nicely done

This is an extraordinarily simple and uncomplicated app. It doesn't have any bells and whistles, but it doesn't need any either. Quick and easy to use and very clear to interpret. Good for IFR pilots and students. Only drawback is the heading selectors are too sensitive when trying to fine tune the headings.
