Sort of like DoA-CASA, although these days the motto seems to have changed to

CR-2 fits in your pocket if so inclined to keep it there. CR-3 much easier to read and hence more accurate for exams. Having said that, I used my CR-2 for ATPLs and passed fine. Put it on the dash one day though and it didn't come out too good

Is Aeroplane Flight Review correct?
I'm considering getting one of these CR2's... might as well know both worlds and use the easiest one for each calculation, my E6-B is my good friend I'll say!
I like the CR5 model. It's about a half inch smaller than the CR2 so a little less accurate but the slight reduction in size allows it to fit in a lot more pockets & not just the ones on uniform shirts. Quite accurate enough though - I passed Oz both IR exams (as it was then), Oz SCPL/ATPL exams, US ATPL exam & UK ATPL exams using it.

Sorry to be such a nerd. An aeroplane is a type of aircraft. Just as a helicopter and airship are also types of aircraft. Therefore a fixed wing pilot will do an Aeroplane Flight Review.
