Description

FlyBy E6B is an essential application for all pilots. Designed by a professional airline pilot it includes many features not found in the "other" E6B programs.
If you are considering a career in aviation FlyBy E6B has functions that you can use in every aircraft you will fly.

FlyBy E6B was one of the very first applications of its kind published for the Palm Pilot. Used by thousands of pilots the world over, it has evolved from the suggestions and feedback we have received.

Oceanic Navigation Re Clearance | Circle to Land Turn Radius

(Validate the magnetic course and distance between waypoints). FlyBy E6B provides initial outbound magnetic course, midpoint magnetic course, inbound magnetic course, variation, and distance. Information required on Master Document oceanic cross check annotations. Circle to Land. KIAS to KTAS, angle of bank limited, and critical to know radius of turn calculation. These values are key in evaluating if you can safely circle at any airport irrespective of meeting the basic Jeppesen chart limitations. FlyBy E6B is incredibly your student pilot first time flight calculator that will advance with your career to long range oceanic remote FAR Part 25 Turbo Jet Operations. Even more impressive Lonnie Ganz the creator of this program is responsive and available to customer needs. A passionate and always driven to improve aviation professional.

Exceptional App

I am an experimental test pilot with Bombardier Learjet. I use Lonnie’s app frequently for test mission planning and execution. It is reliable and thorough. Highly recommended.

Fantastic Application

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...
