Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: PFMA E6B LITE at none against Virtual VOR's shown. PFMA E6B LITE also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 86%) and monetization model (free vs ad-supported). Virtual VOR's advantage is rating (4.0 vs 3.8) and ratings volume (46 vs 4). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Virtual VOR holds the better App Store score, 4.0 against 3.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Virtual VOR has 46 ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of PFMA E6B LITE's written reviews are positive against 86% of Virtual VOR's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
