Date - 1-5-2011 Pilot Rating - Private Overall  Durability Reliability Value Usability Expected Recommended No |  ( No Pros Listed From Reviewer ) ConsI did not receive an instruction guide with this item as I did years ago when purchasing the 3 inch version. Your staff gave me the web site to download the material, but there was none there. I contacted the manufacturer and was sent the needed materials. Please follow-up on thei. The piece of paper with the web site is incorrect according to Jepp's rep. General CommentsThis info is for both the computers. I had to get a larger version because the smaller version (ASA?) was too hard to read. |

Date - 5-6-2009 Pilot Rating - Commercial OverallDurability Reliability Value Usability Expected Recommended Yes | It works. ConsCheaply made. Rough to manipulate. General Commentsin this age of GPS this is good as a standby, but certainly is not of the quality of its forebears. |
Date - 3-11-2009 Pilot Rating - Student OverallDurability Reliability Value Usability Expected Recommended Yes | ( No Pros Listed From Reviewer ) ConsThe inner scale is difficult to turn - it is kind of tight and there is no nubbin for the thumb to grab. General CommentsGenerally it is a good product. |

Date - 2-7-2009 Pilot Rating - Instrument OverallDurability Reliability Value Usability Expected Recommended Yes | I have worn the numbers off of my old E6-B and needed a replacement. The E6-B that I bought from was the size that I wanted, it looks nice and it looks like it might hold up for a while. Cons My problem was that the slide (you know that round thing on top side of the flight computer; with numbers all over it and some slots cut in it) wouldn't turn worth a flip. I was as unhappy as a whore that just found out that she got a counterfeit $100 bill. I sez to myself “I just send the damned thing back, Sporty’s is a good outfit and they will send me another one”. (I know how you folks to business.) Well there is the rub. Sure you would replace it but the replacement probably wouldn’t work either. |

Date - 9-3-2008 Pilot Rating - Student OverallDurability Reliability Value Usability Expected Recommended Yes | Works well. Reasonably durable, very happy with the purchase. Book and examples were very good at teaching how to use it. Great size for throwing in the flight bag as a backup. ConsInitially wheel is very hard to turn. It's small enough that precision is sometimes difficult. General CommentsI added some little 'nubs' on the top of the wheel to assist in rotating it as needed ( I'd think little plastic feet with adhesive backing would work well ). After a few days of use, the wheel has loosened up and it works well. |

Date - 3-5-2008 Pilot Rating - Private OverallDurability Reliability Value Usability Expected Recommended Yes | Conventiently small. ConsIt's small for old eyes. (Yeah, get used to it gramps.) General CommentsSome of the scales are not quite accurate, worse than expected in comparison to larger E6B. |
Date - 1-29-2008 Pilot Rating - Instrument OverallDurability Reliability Value Usability Expected Recommended No | Size was nice. Easy to carry in flight bag. Cons Really hard to turn, dial crushed while attempting to turn it. I would stick with a larger EA-6B. |

| Nice size, still readable (but will need reding glasses to use it soon - operator issue, not the product). ConsHad to put lok-tite on the screws holding the wind ring in after a couple of days studying for my PPA practical. Both hold down clips came loose and ring fell out. Nothing other than a permanent marker will leave a mark on the plastic for wind calcs. Have to cover with saran wrap to keep from leaving marks over the whole thing. General CommentsWould use this exclusively if I could do wind calcs like on full size. |
