Date - 1-10-2012 Pilot Rating - Student OverallDurability Reliability Value Usability Expected Recommended No | Price point is good. ConsConsidering the actual size is smaller then you think and the build quality is cheap (rivet already fell off), I'd look for an alternative. General Comments This product should be a bit bigger and have a tab on the inner sleeve so you don't have to peel it apart to use it. |
Date - 11-11-2011 Pilot Rating - Student OverallDurability Reliability Value Usability Expected Recommended No | Fell Apart first time I used it ( No Pros Listed From Reviewer ) Cons( No Cons Listed From Reviewer ) General CommentsItem fell apart the first time I tried to turn the dial, so it's broken, and worthless |
Date - 9-6-2011 Pilot Rating - Private OverallDurability Reliability Value Usability Expected Recommended No | ( No Pros Listed From Reviewer ) ConsPoor constructioin and hard to use. Would be handy if better made. General Comments( No General Comments Listed From Reviewer ) |
| OK kinda dorky, but helpful to a student pilot trying to learn their way. ConsIt is a bit on the flimsy side. General Comments( No General Comments Listed From Reviewer ) |

Date - 3-17-2011 Pilot Rating - Student OverallDurability Reliability Value Usability Expected Recommended No | Straight forward calculator. ConsYou would think that this could be of some value but the practical application of it once you add in the variable of wind makes it an non-essential tool. General Comments( No General Comments Listed From Reviewer ) |
Date - 2-21-2011 Pilot Rating - Student OverallDurability Reliability Value Usability Expected Recommended Yes | I can even use it in the cockpit when an unfamiliar approach needs to be set up. I put the 45 degree entry heading into the GPS OBS window and fly for it to make an entry to an uncontrolled airport. ConsThe one Sporty's sent me was defective; the printing was misaligned. When I got in touch with ASA they sent me one straightaway. General Comments( No General Comments Listed From Reviewer ) |
Date - 12-3-2010 Pilot Rating - Private OverallDurability Reliability Value Usability Expected Recommended No | looks simple to use Consvery flimsy and probably won't last. General Commentswaste of money. Better to use a piece of paper and pencil |

Date - 7-7-2010 Pilot Rating - Student OverallDurability Reliability Value Usability Expected Recommended Yes | This thing is easy to use and accurate. It is lightweight and fits just about anywhere yet the numbers a legible. ConsI expected a little more substantial construction for the price, but it works as advertised and does the job. General Comments( No General Comments Listed From Reviewer ) |
Date - 6-18-2010 Pilot Rating - Private OverallDurability Reliability Value Usability Expected Recommended No | Good idea for fast determination of airport approach headings. Numerals were too small for easy reading, especially with sunglasses on. Most numbers (downwind, final, etc) ... lined up correctly, but a segment of headings did not. A little expensive for what it is. General Comments( No General Comments Listed From Reviewer ) |
Date - 5-21-2010 Pilot Rating - Student OverallDurability Reliability Value Usability Expected Recommended Yes | It does what you would expect. A good training aid. Also reduces your in-flight work load. Priced right. ConsNone. General Comments( No General Comments Listed From Reviewer ) |
| ( No Pros Listed From Reviewer ) Consnumbers are not in a line... you can read 34 in the left and 17 on the right (istead 16)..... just a print error...but like this is not very usefull. General Comments( No General Comments Listed From Reviewer ) |
Date - 3-25-2009 Pilot Rating - Private OverallDurability Reliability Value Usability Expected Recommended Yes | I am just getting back to flying after 35 years. Sometimes traffic patterns can be like confusing. This is a handy pocket item ro cut down on confusion in the traffic pattern. ConsNot easy to set. Set before you take off. General Comments( No General Comments Listed From Reviewer ) |
Date - 1-4-2009 Pilot Rating - Student OverallDurability Reliability Value Usability Expected Recommended Yes | ( No Pros Listed From Reviewer ) Cons( No Cons Listed From Reviewer ) General CommentsCouldn't be handier! |
Date - 12-3-2008 Pilot Rating - Student OverallDurability Reliability Value Usability Expected Recommended No | With limitations, functions as advertised ConsRequires both hands to work. Very overpriced. Fair value would be closer to $7.00. It is only a two second aid at the kitchen table while flight planning. Print numbers too small to read in even slight turbulance General CommentsWhen needed, a navigational aid should work as an aid, not a challenge. Product has a sound concept, but seems to be more interested in making money vs. assisting pilots. |

Date - 10-8-2008 Pilot Rating - Student OverallDurability Reliability Value Usability Expected Recommended Yes | As an older student this allowed me better situational awareness by allowing me to understand the runway and pattern orientation based upon my heading. The wheel is small and easy to use and fits in a flight bag with no problems. ConsNone to speak of. General Comments( No General Comments Listed From Reviewer ) |
Date - 9-29-2008 Pilot Rating - Commercial OverallDurability Reliability Value Usability Expected Recommended No | shows pattern headings. Cons Shows 45 degree entry but does not point to the heading numbers. You have to compute the reciprical. ( No General Comments Listed From Reviewer ) |
