Designed for pilots, it offers reliable, battery-free operation for essential in-flight navigation and performance calculations. ## Description The E6B Circular Flight Computer combines high-quality construction with easy-to-read lettering to deliver the most efficient, accurate, and convenient manual flight computer availalble. Perform multiple calculations ranging from basic arithmetic and flight planning problems to complex in-flight computations. The calculator side of the computer uses conventional slide rule procedures to solve for multiplication, division, and unit conversion and employs scales for performing time, speed, distance, rate, fuel consumption, altitude, airspeed, air temperature, and pressure pattern calculations. The wind side of the computer provides a graphic method of solving problems and displaying the answers in a useful form. Use the wind side for simple addition and subraction problems and also to solve for true wind, winds in flight, true course and ground speed, true heading and true airspeed, and off-course correction calculations. The matte finish on the wind side of the calculator can be marked with a pencil during use, and easly wiped clean to allow input for the next problem. The E6B Circular Flight Computer is a great tool to use during flight planning, flight training or studying, and may be used during FAA written knowledge exams. Pilots flying faster aircraft at higher altitudes will find this computer useful in gaining insight to the external atmospheric conditions and the effects they have on in-flight performance. Review: Recommended by my CFI - and I'm impressed. Plus it's a cool geek toy. - I am starting my flight instruction but have quite a heavy workload at the moment, so my CFI is having me focus on learning the various tools and concepts that can be worked on in relatively short blocks of time when I have a couple of minutes to spare. He advised me to get this E6B as he had started with a paper one and after multiple accidental abuses (coffee / water spills while planning, shoving things on it in his flight bag, etc...) he found he had a lifespan of a couple of years out of each paper one. He switched to an aluminum one and has had it for over 20 years and has been recommending them since. Fully aside from it's real use in flying, an E6B of any nature has a spot as "geek toy" for anyone in the fields of math, science, and engineering due to it being the last widely produced slide rule style tool in existence. The more you use / play / ponder an E6B, the more one recognizes the incredible talent which went into coming up with what seems a very simple tool both in terms of the actual concept and the execution. What at first looks random is actually very precisely defined, and what at first looks like a tool for a very specific function suddenly has all kinds of other uses. Build quality of this model is excellent. It uses a plastic friction bushing, which more or less eliminates the pivot wear issues that earlier metal versions were prone to having. While it is thicker and heavier than a paper one I feel that is a good trade to have made for the benefits of a metal one. Review: Excellent Product - Delivered real fast and perfect for training. ## Features - Dimensions: 6" diameter ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B01B0M5P4M | | Brand | ASA | | Calculator Type | Flight Computer | | Color | silver | | Customer Reviews | 4.8 out of 5 stars 709 Reviews | | Display Type | VFD | | Enclosure Material | Metal | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00752397171923 | | Item Dimensions L x W | 6"L x 6"W | | Item Weight | 0.64 Pounds | | Manufacturer | ASA | | Mfr Part Number | TY15135329 | | Model Name | E6B Metal Flight Computer | | Model Number | EL-PN-47346218 | | Power Source | Battery Powered | | Screen Size | 6 Inches | | UPC | 752397171923 792745073752 752397174603 013424037965 | ## Product Details - **Brand:** ASA - **Color:** silver - **Calculator Type:** Flight Computer - **Power Source:** Battery Powered - **Screen Size:** 6 Inches ## Images ![ASA E6B Metal Flight Computer - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61AA6p8bzuL.jpg) ![ASA E6B Metal Flight Computer - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61KzmPcsHhL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Recommended by my CFI - and I'm impressed.

At 78 years of age I'm getting back into flying. Since the dials on my 60 year old E6B have become difficult to rotate, I decided to get a new one. The metal design makes it very durable and you can toss it into your flight bag with out worrying about bending it. The calculator side of the E6B is basically a circular slide rule (photo below), a tool that is probably quite foreign to most people today. Now, it's all computers/tablets/cell phones. Back then, slide rules were used to make the calculations that went into designing airplanes, many of which are still flying today. I've included a photo of the calculator side of the E6B and of a Slide Rule so those who may have never seen a slide rule can see how similar they are. ## Frequently Bought Together - ASA E6B Metal Flight Computer - ASA Rotating Plotter - Aviation Navigation Tool - 13" Analog Display - Waterproof - ASA CX-3 Flight Computer – Advanced Electronic E6B for Accurate Flight Planning and FAA Exam Preparation --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.fr/products/35722239-asa-e6b-metal-flight-computer](https://www.desertcart.fr/products/35722239-asa-e6b-metal-flight-computer) --- *Product available on Desertcart France* *Store origin: FR* *Last updated: 2026-05-17*
