Hi all

Whats best for simplicity and price? The Metal/Plastic E6B or the
electronic one?


Nigel Reeves

The plastic/metal one will be more fun, always work and let you see
how the solution to drift and time calculations arise. It will also
develop your skills in navigation. You will be developing the skills
that all the great aviators used when they made pioneering flights.
Electronic calculators are boring. By the way, in NZ we are not
allowed to use electronic calculators for our piloting exams ! I think
its great that your dad is trusting your skills in navigation to help
him fly cross country.

Cheers Mark.
