METAR and TAF is no longer available What gives Without the weather feature this app is little more than an electronic E6B             METAR and TAF HowyFeltersnach

I fly CRJ s for a living and wanted an E6B for those moments when Dispatch gives you just enough fuel and not a pound more Helps calculate fuel burns ISA deviations and many other things Definitely recommend                 Jet Aircraft E6B Locolizer

I use this every time I fly Either in 777 Bonanza or R44 Has all the functions you could want easy to use all you need in one app Highly recommend                     This is the one Stunnedmullet

Great app Easy to use very straight forward I m a CFII and use the app daily with my students Almost al of my students use this app The author is very receptive to suggestions and is quick to resolve any issues                     CFII LarryKoch

Does it all Particularly helpful for preflight planning Accurate and easy to use                     Versatile SJomix

Definitely the most useful and user friendly aviation app I ve found                     First rate Fling Wing

I don t write a lot of reviews but this app really deserves it Extremely practical Author keeps it up to date and is open to suggestions HIGHLY recommended                     Great Application minoxer

This app is perfect for all phases of pre flight planning From TAS to Performance Data this app handles flawlessly Price rates it 4 Stars                 E6b Hosedragger226

Nice app too bad can t be used on the FAA exam     It s ok if only Edward1959

I like all the functions And getting 1 minute weather is a bonus                     useful Brenn E

The app is very innovative and great for pilots The developer takes all types of suggestions about the app I highly recommend this app                     Fantastic Application Jedi Legend

I like this app but I would love to see an update capable of computing a fix to fix Otherwise it has everything else I really need I m a C 130 navigator with 12 years experience                 Pretty good 130 nav

Quick accurate and easy to use                     CFI GinoCorona

Very convenient and complete Very nice                 E6B Dustoff 13

Please add a weight and balance             Weight and balance Helipad2101

This is the one to get Complete accurate and easy to use Nice presentation and user interface Works well on both my iPhone and IPad App was redesigned for each device to take advantage of the screen size not just scaled up down Purchase once and use on both devices Years ago I used FlyBy s products on my Palm Pilot so I was already familiar with the company and quality of their offerings                     Very Satisfied Biba Flyers

Pretty darned useful app Use it often                     Great app Cherokee Charlie

Very nice and comprehensive the ease of use is very nice and intuitive Wish I would have had something like this when I was a student As an airline Captain there are many useful items that are now indispensable specially the conversions from metric to standard systems I m sure the are items that can be improved but as it stands it s a very nice app for the money                 Nice app Guscfi

The bank stall speed calculations of this calculator are incorrect A glider with a stall speed of 40 mph circling in a thermal at a 60 degree angle does so at 2 G s To calculate the stall speed at this angle one must take the square root of 2 which is 1 4 and multiply that number by the published level stall speed of 40 which would make the new stall speed 56 mph and not 80 mph as the calculator indicates Also could you add a simple calculator function to this calculator         Turning Stall Speed Calculation Error gerchagrin

Very capable app esp weather functions but would it be too much trouble to add weight balance calculations                 Need weight balance naturephotoguy

I use this program on my iPad and works great but would like it designed for the iPad in a landscape profile                     Great program Ixoceans

The E6B app is great performs well and does exactly what an E6B should do I felt there were a couple of important functions which no other E6B app would do but yet were needed and use often by pilots and flight students Among these was the ability to provide interpolated answers from airplane performance data I suggested to Skywriter Software and within days it was there That is customer service                     Quality Product Quality Company DWECFI

I have used SkyWriter E6B first on my old Palm Pilot PDA many years ago When the Windows CE phones came out I installed the Windows version of the software and used it until I got the iPhone When the iPhone App came out I bought it right away and as a corporate pilot I use it regularly It does all the airspeed calculations wind heading and groundspeed Vnav lots of conversions and Nav calculations Great support and always a willingness to improve the App Example A couple of weeks ago when a group of fellow pilots were discussing circling approaches I emailed to Lonnie and asked him to add a screen where TAS and bank angle could be input and yield radius of turn and time for a 180 degree turn I sent the email 2 3 he responded the next day and had it worked out and on 2 10 got notification that it was available for download It is perfect for my needs and great support                     Perfect for me KingAirPilot

I have used a few E6 B s in my time but I must say that the FlyBy E6 B ring all the bells for me It is straight forward easy to use and very intuitive I m am a recent convert from the Windows world and I must say Lonnie s update to the IPhone is wonderful He has added several features that really make FlyBy outshine its competitors Besides all the normal conversion one would expect from an E6B Lonnie has added some special features that make getting weather data in METAR and TAF a snap with his Decode WX button If you find your TAF and METAR reading skills are a little rusty just hit the Decode button and you are off and running in english Way Cool I especially like the input wheels when doing my conversions and the small i icon is great for a reminder concerning input data The Track and Distance feature is especially nice for quick information concerning a route Overall I m very happy for to have the FlyBy E6B in my flying toolbox it s used a lot I highly recommend this app to all pilots a 5 star rating Happy landings One Happy FlyBy E6B customer                     Great App v1 5 Quigalater

It s not a good interface like the one screen does all it s complex with back and forth screen action but it has vertical nav functions a 3 star rateing because it s not a simple clean program             Maybe Snaffu413

I needed a quick way to convert gradient to Feet nm and the developers were quick to respond and deliver The interface is straight forward and intuitive I also use this to quickly convert lbs to gal or liters Overall just an easy to use great app for pilots                     Nice GKyrk

I got my general pilots license in the 90s thanks to FlyBy E6B as a student what a nightmare it was to do calculations with the old aluminum E6B computer capable but primitive I used to think Nasa put men on the moon using slide rules so I can solve these problems Then as a miracle I discovered FLyBy s E6B for my palm pilot and how easy and fun it was to do calculations and as a multinational guy that I am for everyday use converting temperature and distances I liked it so much that I got the desktop version and used it all the time As technology progresses I was very happy to find that FlyBy E6B was available as an App for the iphone Their customer service is fantastic Lonnie always responds emails promptly trough out the years Unlike Jeppesen where I bought two aviation calculators and both after the battery died couldn t be brought up to life again with a fresh battery and Jeppesen didnt stand behind their product saying that there was a problem with the calculators and they didnt support them any longer I recommend highly FlyBy E6B and it will always have good memories and a soft spot in my heart                     Fantastic Application Volare1
