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
liveFor: Student · Pilot
The full flight-computer function set: unit conversions, time-speed-distance and fuel solvers, density altitude and TAS, the wind triangle with a live diagram, climb & descent gradients, and weight-shift math.
METAR Decoder
liveFor: Student · Pilot
Fetch 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
liveFor: Student · Pilot
Usable 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
liveFor: Student · Pilot
Load 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
liveFor: Student · Pilot
Density 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
liveFor: Student · Pilot
Ceiling, visibility, wind, and density altitude banded green/amber/red against your personal minimums — a one-look decision aid before you commit.
Compass & Instrument Errors
liveFor: Student · CFI
The magnetic compass acceleration (ANDS) and turning errors, on a live card — plus a reference for the gyro and pitot-static instrument errors.
Crosswind Components
liveFor: Student · Pilot
Set 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: a systems trainer. Live weather by airport is already in the METAR decoder above — type a station and fetch it.
