Free pilot tools
Fast, no-signup flight-planning tools — the math checked against the handbooks. Built to be used on the ground before you fly.
E6B Flight Computer
liveDensity altitude and true airspeed, the wind triangle (heading and groundspeed with a live diagram), and cloud base — the flight-computer math without the wheel.
METAR Decoder
liveFetch the live report for any airport, or paste a raw METAR, and read it in plain English — wind, visibility, ceiling, temperature, and a VFR/MVFR/IFR/LIFR call.
Fuel & Endurance
liveUsable fuel, burn, and cruise speed into endurance, still-air range, and a §91.151 reserve check — the numbers before the dipstick confirms them.
Weight & Balance
liveLoad the seats, baggage, and fuel and watch the CG land inside — or outside — the envelope, on a live weight-vs-CG chart. A PA-28 example you edit for your aircraft.
Takeoff & Landing Performance
liveDensity altitude, weight, and wind into ground roll and the over-50-ft distance, checked against your runway — the POH method, worked on a PA-28 example.
Go / No-Go
liveCeiling, visibility, wind, and density altitude banded green/amber/red against your personal minimums — a one-look decision aid before you commit.
Unit Converter
liveSpeed, distance, altitude, volume, weight, temperature, and pressure — the conversions you actually reach for in the cockpit, live as you type.
Compass & Instrument Errors
liveThe magnetic compass acceleration (ANDS) and turning errors, on a live card — plus a reference for the gyro and pitot-static instrument errors.
Crosswind Components
liveSet the runway and wind and read off the headwind and crosswind components, checked against your personal limit and the gusts.
More on the way
Still to come: live weather by airport, and a systems trainer. For now, paste a METAR into the decoder above.
