Having just been given an iPAQ3630 - to replace a wheezing Psion 3mx - does anyone out there know of any good programs for us piloting people?

Logbook & FDP Duty Calculator would be particularly useful. One program I've found that is good is "CityTime" which gives a neat 3-d world time display (sunrise/set times etc) for any one of 500+ places - including airport codes & info. Neat.

Any replies would be greatly appreciated.

Regards, Peter.

There's a fairly neat little program called Ce6b which you can find on Tucows or on www.palmplan.flyer.co.uk (http://www.palmplan.flyer.co.uk) which is for the WinCE. The features are "Aviation E6b utilities and flight planning for Windows CE. Features include: Latitude-Longitude (Great circle and Rhumb line tracks); Wind triangle (Hdg/Gs, Trk/Gs, W/v, Crosswind-Headwind components); Fuel planning (Fuel consumption, Speed-Time-Distance); Weight and Balance (Take off/landing weight and centre of gravity); Altitude-Airspeed (Density alt, Pressure alt, True alt, TAS-RAS-MACH); Vertical navigation (Rate of climb, Top of climb, Rate of descent, Top of descent); Timer (stopwatch functions); Utilities (Logbook totaliser, Costing, Holding patterns, Critical point, Point of no return, Sunrise-Sunset); On-line help." It is a demo tho, not sure of the full program.
