Whiz is a digital E6B flight computer for pilots of every level — from your first solo to ATPL. 169 calculations across 22 modules, 100% offline, in one fast, distraction-free app. WHAT YOU CAN COMPUTE • Airspeeds & atmosphere: TAS, CAS/EAS, Mach, density altitude, pressure altitude, ISA deviation • Wind: full wind triangle, heading & ground speed, crosswind/headwind components, WCA • Time-speed-distance, ETE/ETA, and fuel planning with reserves • Weight & Balance with an interactive CG envelope • Descent & climb: top of descent, rate of descent, gradients, the 3:1 rule • Safety tools most calculators skip: engine-out glide ring, V-speeds by weight, and a crosswind GO / NO-GO check that flags the gust against your POH limit • IFR & pro: runway performance, METAR/TAF decode, holding entries, cold-weather altimetry, oxygen, RNAV/RNP, airline-grade W&B, and more • Every aviation unit conversion WHY PILOTS LIKE IT • Works fully offline — perfect for the cockpit with no signal • Simple vs Precise mode: cockpit rules of thumb or the exact ISA/geodesic model • Configurable by jurisdiction (FAA, EASA, ICAO) and by experience level • Save aircraft profiles to prefill W&B and go/no-go • A "How is it calculated?" view that teaches the formula — great for students Whiz is a computation aid. It does not replace your aircraft's POH/AFM, official charts, current regulations, or operator-required calculations. The pilot in command is always responsible for verifying every figure.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Whiz at none against Flight Computer's shown. Whiz also leads on device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). On price and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
