Unreliable and poorly designed plotter

As my tests showed, this plotter is frustratingly difficult to use due to its unreliable rotation mechanism. The plastic feels flimsy and several times the plotter slipped out of my hands. The only positive is that it is lightweight and easy to carry around. The cons outweigh any potential benefits, and I would not recommend this product to fellow aviators.

Pros
  • Accurate and easy to use for pilots to plot course headings and measure distances on aeronautical charts.
Cons
  • The rotating bezel can become loose over time and affect the accuracy of the measurements.

Simply the best aircraft plotter

The Jeppesen PJ-1 azimuth rotary plotter is simply the best aircraft plotter in production. Unlike a traditional [non-rotating] plotter, this plotter is designed to allow the user to rotate the azimuth, allowing for magnetic heading or true heading measurements. In addition, this plotter includes scales for cut, terminal and WAC charts. Another plus is that the plastic the PJ-1 is made of is thick and its edges are smooth; I've left this plotter in the sun many times and it still hasn't shown…

Pros
  • Electronics
Cons
  • Minor problems
