my Nephew needs help with a College project

[Daveroo]

maybe you guys can help me...my mind is blank...i guess my recient illness affected me more than i thought...i wasnt getting Oxygen to my brain properly and i cant remember simple things anymore..nor can i remember yesterday...

Hi! 😉


How are you feeling? Hopefully not too terrible. ☹


I was wondering if you could help me with a school assignment. I need 6 different aviation calculations. I already have a Density Altitude calculator, but what else would be some useful stuff? I don't actually need the calculations yet (although it would be nice), just the name of the calculation for now, but I would like there to be a future real world application for this program. All we really need to due for next week is build the tabs that hold each calculation program. Essentially it will be a single program that holds 6 other little programs for aviation. Make sense? Any ideas? Thanx!

Landings website has a number of online aviation calculators.

Google the Jeppsen E6B whiz wheel, and see what calculations that it can perform. That should cover everything he needs.

Mach number. And density ratio is a useful value, needed for calculating others.

1. One in 60 Rule
2. Decent FPM to an altitude at 3 degree glideslope
3. Converting Airspeed to nm/min

All useful in practical terms.
