Formulas for the Air Navigation Computer is written for pilots and
air navigators at all levels of experience from the novice to the
professional. The book is self-help on how to use the E6-B Air
Navigation Computer. An E6-B Air Navigation Computer is a circular
slide rule with a wind slide on the reverse side. It is dedicated
to performing all calculations related to pre-flight planning and
in-flight air navigation. Every pilot has an E6-B Air Navigation
Computer, which is supplied with a very brief instructional booklet
when the E6-B is purchased. However, the booklet only covers a few
basic formulas, and many more formulas are required for passing the
pilot navigation exams at various levels and, of course, for all
operational flying. Obtaining all these different formulas from
various sources is time consuming, as this author has discovered
over the years. They are not readily available in one book. This is
the reason for writing Formulas for the Air Navigation Computer; it
is a unique collection of air navigation computer formulas. The
formulas are written as they appear when set up on the E6-B Air
Navigation Computer. A full description on how to solve each
formula is included, along with a worked example and also the
methods for using the wind slide to calculate wind triangle and
other navigational problems associated with the wind slide. The
book is easy to follow by the novice pilot and a convenient
reference source for the more experienced pilot. The book is
complete with all the formulas a pilot of any level should need to
know. It is laid out in a simple way with over 122 formulas and
methods, covering Time, Speed & Distance, Air Speed, Altitude
Navigation, VNAV, One-in-Sixty Rule, Wind triangle Calculations,
Wind Finding methods, Fuel Calculations, Pressure Pattern
Navigation and more.
