Perhaps they mean there is a prohibition on "programmable" calculators. That is how it is here in Canada. This forces you to know the formulae required for the exams rather than programming it all into a calculator for quick recall during an exam.
They cannot prohibit all calculators as the old and trusty E-6B is nothing more than a circular slide ruler that doubles as a calculator (if you know how to use it right that is).

I know guys i cant use the programmable one . but cant we use the same one as the CAA UK ONE? can someone give me a picture of how a visual one is? EVEN in the UK when i done couple of atpl's you could take couple of specific calculators and you had to know the formula by heart isnt it like that in spain?

I did my PPL a few years ago, but I think this was the calculator provided: Calculadora cientÃ*fica para los Exámenes Teóricos para PILOTOS. SENASA.
