High Expectations, Low Results

After I put it to the test in my aircraft, I found that this product fell short of my expectations. While it includes many calculations and checklists, I found them to be inaccurate and did not trust the information provided. The only positive is the compact size.

Pros
  • Quick and easy access to essential calculations and checklists for pilots.
Cons
  • May require some time and effort to familiarize oneself with the contents before it becomes fully useful.

Difficult kiddie font to read Otherwise OK

Pros
  • This is amazing
Cons
  • Disappearing

Pros
  • Decent performance
