That creepy looking device with the wheels and the sliding card may
seem intimidating, but it's really easy to use.
For the test you will use it to find just TWO variables:
In "Flight Time" questions you will always be finding GROUND SPEED
In " Heading" questions you will always be finding WIND CORRECTION.
Follow my step by step instructions the same way every time and you
will always get the correct answers.

“Dont worry why, just do it to get the right answer” wow great teaching dude, so helpful

@nelsondesouza1078 7 лет назад

Dr. Alan, keep up with your teaching methods. They are effective and your simple language is helping to learn fast. Thank you for that. I really appreciated that.

@TheFalconJetDriver 5 лет назад

Dr Allen is a good teacher if you want to learn techniques that are incorrect.

@stanleysiewert5885 5 лет назад

This method generates an incorrect wind correction angle. Students are better served by using wind direction first, just like the instructions on the E6-B.

Thank you.

You actually did it wrong. You set the wind direction first but u put the true course first. Doing that makes you have a right crosswind with a slight tailwind. If the calculation was done right you would have a left cross wind with a slight tailwind. You did get the right ground speed though.

PilotCrissy the goal was to find the GS that’s what he did nothing more nothing less

@@michaelquinn8498 The goal is also not to accidentally mislead people. Thank you Crissy for the correction

@marcheritier4 5 лет назад

thank you.

@marcheritier4 5 лет назад

Please clarify . Did you intend to say 'You SHOULD set the wind direction first .. ? Thank you .

@tbeevers 4 года назад

@@marcheritier4 Yes, wind direction first...the problem just happened to work out the GS was the same regardless how he did it but always set wind direction first

@cgauvin00 6 лет назад

I like the explanation and I gave you a thumb up, but you made an error at the beginning while using E6B. Instead of using the True Course, you should have used you the Wind Direction. The explanation is on the E6B itself. 1- Place Wind Direction under True Index. Instead of using a calculator, I would turn the E6B over and the other side to time and distance. I had done it that way and it works. Thanks.

i read the same thing and it still come out at a 98kts ground speed i was one out to what Doc Alan got he got 99kts wind first true course next is this the right way mate or not

Hi Alan just stumbled on your site. Amazing can you tell me where I can purchase all that I need for the test. Book,computer, thanks Billy.

@frankgravina2861 4 года назад

The directions on the E6B say for step one "place the wind direction under the true index" (not the true course.

@guli41 4 года назад

Thank you so much 👍 now I can get an e6b and start practicing

Great video- it’s been out awhile. What order do you go through first? Example: If my track is 090- east. A) calculate winds B) calculate Distance C) add or subtract sectional map variations. D) calculate Time for leg. E) calculate magnetic heading F) calculate planes compass deviation Can any be done out of sequence & still be ok?

@knutsnbolts2268 6 лет назад

helps a lot. thank u sir :)

Thanks. Dr. Oh. This helps a lot ! I really appreciate. Your video one of the best and to the point and make it simplified. 👍👍👍

Terrific.

@pianofixer898 3 года назад

DO NOT WATCH THIS. You will screw up your wind correction angle. Just read the instructions on the device.

@samPhirunny 8 лет назад

Hello Alen. Question for you. Do I need to take a test first before I go to flight school? Thanks

@samPhirunny 8 лет назад

Thanks boss.

@GeoCalifornian 4 года назад

Yes Teacher. I think I understand the first 2-minutes. But please, go slow. And, continue to point to the E6B in case I forget which computer to use in this lesson plan. /Lonewolf
