A quick and simple app for the safe air navigation. This flight GPS offers simplicity and shortcut solutions instead of difficult, expensive and complicated programs. What we offer: - Airports of the world - Compass + nav pointer & Map views - Heading - track - bearing navigation aids - Distance (DME), time en route (ETA) and speed calculations with free selection of units Basic version: One airport can be selected from each counties. Full version is unlimited, it's available by in-app purchase.
E6B
This app provides a comprehensive suite of aviation calculations for pilots, including weather, preflight planning, in-flight adjustments, and weight and balance computations. It also offers a wide range of unit conversions for aviation-related metrics.
- Weather calculations (pressure/density altitude, crosswind)
- Preflight planning (airspeed, heading, fuel)
- In-flight calculations (true airspeed, altitude, groundspeed)
- Weight and balance with custom aircraft profiles
- Extensive unit conversions
- Time math (add/subtract times)

E6B is a modern flight computer for iPhone and iPad — built for student E6B is a modern flight computer for iPhone and iPad — built for student pilots, instrument candidates, and working aviators who need fast, accurate calculations without fumbling with a physical whiz wheel. WEATHER • Pressure & Density Altitude — from baro setting, OAT, and field elevation • Crosswind, Headwind & Tailwind — enter wind speed, direction, and runway heading • Cloud Base & Freezing Level — AGL and pressure altitude • Hydroplane Speed PREFLIGHT • Planned True Airspeed — from CAS, pressure altitude, and OAT • Required CAS / Required TAS — reverse-solve airspeed equations • Heading & Groundspeed — full wind triangle solution • Compass Heading — with magnetic variation and compass deviation • Leg Time — solve any one of time, speed, or distance • Fuel Required & Endurance • Planned Mach Number • Time Math — add and subtract times in HH:MM:SS IN-FLIGHT • Actual True Airspeed — from CAS, altitude, and OAT • Actual True Altitude — corrected for non-standard temperature • Groundspeed — from elapsed time and distance • Fuel Per Hour — from fuel used and elapsed time • Distance Flown WEIGHT & BALANCE Build custom aircraft profiles with stations, limits, and CG envelopes. Load passengers, fuel, and cargo — E6B calculates total weight, moment, and CG in real time. Save multiple profiles for different aircraft. CONVERSIONS Bidirectional converters for: NM ↔ SM ↔ km, feet ↔ meters, °C ↔ °F, inHg ↔ mb, lbs ↔ kg, US gallons ↔ liters, HH:MM:SS ↔ decimal hours, Avgas and Jet A weight (gallons or liters to pounds), and minimum climb gradient to percent or degrees.
