Understand your E6B! Obtaining wind direction and speed.

Показать описание
UNDERSTAND your E6B. A walkthrough for the Instrument Pilot explaining how to obtain wind direction and speed, given course, groundspeed, heading, and airspeed.

Remember, the E6B doesn't care if you use True or Magnetic, just be sure to use the same type of heading throughout the problem, i.e. if you use true winds, you will get true headings.

4 Years later and this is still the best video I could find explaining this concept. I'm writing my MET exam tomorrow and this just saved me :p Thanks so much! Will definitely watch your other videos if I get stuck again.

It took me about 1 Month to understand this, and your video did it for me. Never could find anyone that explained it to me in a way i can understand. I hope you understand how unbelievably grateful i am to you. Exam in 3 days, thanks to you, I'll hopefully get it right!

Thanks - Using the 'mode' concept helped me understand my E6B much more - For us beginners it is a confusing device. Once you "get it" it starts to become simple. I hope you've done a few vids for the other side too?
