About Sporty's E6B
Sporty’s Pilot Shop, the world’s largest pilot shop, brings you the E6B Flight Computer - now for Android phones AND tablets!
This powerful app includes all the features of Sporty's traditional E6B, including 23 aviation functions, 18 conversions and complete timer features.
The app's user-friendly design makes calculations fast and easy. Each function can be selected from a plain English list, and the app prompts the user for information as it goes. Plus, entries are saved from previous calculations, so there's no need to re-enter data. Calculating weight and balance is especially easy, with a dedicated page for adding new passengers, fuel or baggage.
Sporty's E6B app makes quick work of navigational, weight and balance, or fuel problems, and is a favorite of student pilots. But it also includes a number of features that are useful for experienced pilots, like Top of Descent, Specific Range and Planned Mach #.
The timer can be set to count up or count down, so it is perfect for timing approaches, holds or switching fuel tanks. There is also a clock function that shows Home, Local and Zulu time.

Very good value for the money!!! Only issue with it, is that the back button does not take you back in the app, but straight to desktop.

W&B is ok but could use more (like maybe adding a graph & multiple aircraft entries for starters). However, great app with lots of features for the $!

Sporty's is the best E6B by far. Adding graphical representation on the W&B would be icing on the cake, but still the best!

You need a separate calculator to do W&B. You can't name the stations. Can't save data for multiple planes (important for renters). Other apps are better for this function.

It's a pain to use. I wish it was an exact replica (or a lot closer) to the actual Sporty's E6B.

Installed this app on my phone (sony xperia tl running android 4.1.2) and it worked great. Installed it my tablet (asus tf700 running android 4.2.1), which is the device I will be using in the aircraft, and the entire timer functionality is missing. Since that was the deciding factor in selecting this over other apps, I am pretty disappointed. Going back to Sporty's to get a refund or see if the have an update. Stay tuned for what happens before you buy this app for your tablets or make sure you test it out quick before the refund button disappears. Update: here's the bug, on the tablet, when you view the app in landscape mode, the timer automatically appears in the lower left corner, but when the tablet is turned portrait, the timer disappears. Since there is no menu item to select the timer, it is not usable in the aircraft. Since ALL the lap-desks, mounts and aviation apps are designed be used in portrait mode, this app is missing the mark pretty bad if it is intended be used in the aircraft.

Not bad but not worth the $10. I would like to see an option for saving data on the aeroplane I'm flying.

Sporty's did a great job on this app. Saddly, can't use it on the knowledge test.
by N####:
Pretty good, but the calculation for Required Calibrated Airspeed is off to the high side. Same calculation on an actual Sporty'S E6B was 6 kts lower, and the correct answer.
