It will assist with flight planning questions and you can bring your electronic E6B into the testing center to use during the actual test. The electronic E6B is equally useful when in the airplane, to help determine actual winds aloft, true airspeed, fuel burn, and descent planning. 926 175 167 Correct!

Key Takeaways The E6B is a mechanical slide rule that helps pilots make calculations useful for flight planning Use the slide rule side to calculate time, speed, fuel, and air density calculations. You can also use it for unit conversions, estimating wind correction angles, and figuring out density altitude.

To properly use your performance charts, you need to be able to figure out the pressure altitude, and understand what that meansagain, the one and only time during your training that this is strictly required. From pressure altitude, you can move to density altitude by correcting for non-standard temperature.
