Cockpit Aids.
I am a student, not an instructor, so please forgive my intrusion into your forum. I know that in pre-flight planning I must use a whiz wheel, but I would like to know if during the skills test, when having to make my diversion, I am able to use a hand held flight computer to work out details such as ground speed, leg time etc? It seems to me that it should be ok considering it is far more accurate than my brain for estimating. Or is it that part of this exercise is to show the examiner that I am in the correct midset?
I would be grateful for clarity on this point.
Many thanks in anticipation.
