4 RoadmapRoadmap  Conversions  Time, Speed, Distance Problems  Fuel Problems  Density Altitude & TAS Problems  Conversions  Time, Speed, Distance Problems  Fuel Problems  Density Altitude & TAS Problems

5 Slide Rules  Time is always on the inside scale  Distance or Gallons is always on the outside scale  http://www.asa2fly.com/files/support/E6B_Manual.pdf  Time is always on the inside scale  Distance or Gallons is always on the outside scale  http://www.asa2fly.com/files/support/E6B_Manual.pdf

6 ConversionsConversions  Gallons to Pounds  1 gallon = 6 pounds  38 pounds = 6.4 gallons  And vice- versa  Gallons to Pounds  1 gallon = 6 pounds  38 pounds = 6.4 gallons  And vice- versa

7 ConversionsConversions  Nautical to Statue Miles  1NM = 1.15SM  33NM = 38SM  And vice- versa  Nautical to Statue Miles  1NM = 1.15SM  33NM = 38SM  And vice- versa

8 ConversionsConversions  Celsius to Fahrenheit  15C = 59F  0C = 32F  And vice- versa  Celsius to Fahrenheit  15C = 59F  0C = 32F  And vice- versa

9 Time, Speed, & Distance  Used with Dead Reckoning Flying  Accurate  Never fails due to lack of electricity or signal  Used with Dead Reckoning Flying  Accurate  Never fails due to lack of electricity or signal

10 30 Miles in 8.5 Minutes Going 211 Kts, you can fly how far in 4.5 hours? 211 * 4.5 = 950

11 Fuel Consumption  Very similar to Time, Speed, Distance Problems  Time is always on inside scale  Gallons or Pounds of Fuel  Very similar to Time, Speed, Distance Problems  Time is always on inside scale  Gallons or Pounds of Fuel

12 Archer 11ND burns 9.5 GPH How long can you fly on 13 gallons? 1:22 Refueled 35 Gallons Fly for 3:40

13 Altitude & Airspeed Adjustments  You can find Density Altitude & True Airspeed  Density Altitude is the pressure altitude corrected for temperature (what the airplane really “feels”)  True Airspeed is the airspeed corrected for altitude and temperature (how fast the airplane is moving through the less dense air)  You can find Density Altitude & True Airspeed  Density Altitude is the pressure altitude corrected for temperature (what the airplane really “feels”)  True Airspeed is the airspeed corrected for altitude and temperature (how fast the airplane is moving through the less dense air)
