Using the TACHYMETRE scale
The TACHYMETRE dial is mainly used to compute an average speed after noting how long it takes to travel a
fixed distance (like one mile or one kilometer), but it can also be used to compute many other things.
The dial is a logarithmic scale that uses this formula to compute: TACHYMETRE DIAL = 3600 / Elapsed
Time In Seconds
The chronograph second hand indicates 1/10, 1/4, 1/2, 1, 10, 100 or 1,000 etc. units (miles, objects, pounds
etc.). When stopped, the second hand points to the number on the TACHYMETRE scale by which the number
of units (1, 10, 100 or 1,000 etc.) must be multiplied to obtain per-hour production rate or per-hour speed.

Example No. 1 – A car covers one mile in 30
seconds. The second hand, stopped as the mile
marker is passed, reads 120 on the TACHYMETRE
scale. Average speed of the car is 120 x 1, or 120
miles per hour.
Example No. 2 – To measuring something much
slower, such as a bicycle, you must use a shorter
distance because the elapsed time must fall within
the 7.2 - 60 second range.
Although decimal units (100 liters, 1 mile, 10
kilometers) make computing simple, in practice, the
TACHYMETRE scale can be used to calculate
velocities and production rates from any number of
units.
For this example, it took 36 seconds for a cyclist
to travel 1/4 of a mile. Reading the TACHYMETRE
dial displays a speed of 100mph, but the cyclist only
traveled 1/4 of a mile, so the actual speed would be
1/4 of that or an average speed of 25mph over the
quarter mile.
Tachymetre
8.
NOTE - The scale is valid for elapsed times from 4.8 seconds to 60 seconds. If the duration of the event is
outside this range, then the answer on the dial is not valid. Short durations of under eight seconds can be
extremely difficult to time accurately. Some of the following examples show ways to get around this limitation.

Example No. 3 – A copier makes 10 copies in 45
seconds. The sweep second hand was thus stopped
at the 45-second mark, which coincides with the
figure 80 on the TACHYMETRE scale. The hourly
rate of this copier is 80 x 10, or 800 copies.

Example No. 4 – A manufacturing production line
timed for 30 seconds produces 72 parts. Stopped at
the 30-second mark, the chronograph second hand
points to 120 on the TACHYMETRE scale; the
production rate of the machine is 120 x 72, or 8,640
parts per hour.
More Examples:
Suppose you wanted to measure the speed of a jet airplane. After traveling 10 kilometers, you noted that 40
seconds had elapsed. The TACHYMETRE dial displays 90, but you traveled 10 kilometers, so the answer
would be 10 times that, or 900 km/hour.
You can also measure other things, like fuel consumption. Suppose a pound of fuel took 48 seconds to
burn. The chronograph second hand indicates on the TACHYMETRE dial that you are burning 75 pounds of
fuel per hour.
E6B Flight Computer
9.
The E6B Flight Computer is based on the principle of the slide rule. The unit of measurement is the base
10 logarithms (log10). These instructions cover only the basics of using the E6B Flight Computer
Bezel/slide rule. A more complete description may be found in your public library or on the internet.
How to read the scale
The most important technique to master is reading the scale. The numbered tick marks can represent a
range of values. For example, on the scale on the face of the watch, the numeral 30 to the left of the
letters “NAUT” can represent 30, or 300 or 3000 or 3.0. The nine tick marks between the 30 and 35 each
represent 1/10 of the distance between 30 and 35, or 300 and 350, or 3000 and 3500, or 3.0 and 3.5. So
for 3.0 and 3.5 each one of the tick marks represents .05; for 30 and 35, 0.5; for 300 and 350, 5; for
3000 and 3500, 50. You can see it is important that you keep track of the range that each interval
represents.

Let’s try an example:
You’re in your car on the freeway traveling at 60 milesper-hour. You’ve been traveling for 2.5 hours. How far
have you gone?

Solution:
Turn the bezel so that the red numeral 10 on the bezel
(which represents 1 hour) is directly over the “60” on the
face at 12 o’clock (which represents the 60 miles traveled
in 1 hour). Directly below the numeral 25 (2.5 hours) on
the bezel you should see the numeral 15 on the face. The
15 represents the significant digits of the answer and we
must decide whether there should be none, 1 or 2 zeros
after the 15.

You can probably guess how many, because 15 miles in 2.5 hours is obviously too little and 1500 is
obviously too much. So the answer must be 150 miles.

Let’s try another example:
Again, you’re going down the freeway at 70 miles-per-hour. You’ve been traveling at that speed for
110 minutes. How far have you traveled?
¤
Solution:
Turn the bezel so that the numeral 60 (which represents 60 minutes) on the bezel is right above the
number 70 (which represents 70 miles-per-sixty minutes). Now find the numeral 11 on the bezel and
look directly below it on the face. You will note that the 11 is between the numerals 12 and 13 on the
face. We must now interpolate. First we must decide whether the numerals 12 and 13 on the face
represent 12 and 13, 120 and 130, 1200 and 1300, etc. It’s obvious that 12 is too little and 1200 is
too big, but sometimes it’s not so obvious. So here’s another method.

than 2 and less than 4 digits. In other words, it must
have 3 digits until you get above 14 hours or 840 minutes.
After using the Flight Computer for a while these
mental/estimates will become second nature (i.e. intuitive).
Now that we’ve done the mental calculation, we know that
the answer must have 3 digits. Therefore 12 must
represent the number 120 and 13 must represent the
number 130. Since there are nine ticks between the 12 and
13, there are ten divisions between them. Since they
represent the difference between the numbers 120 and
130, which is 10, each tick must represent 1. Since the
numeral 11 on the bezel is above the eighth tick after

At 70 miles-per-hour (70 miles in 60 minutes), you would
65have to travel over 14 hours to go further than 1000 miles.
14 hours is 840 minutes. So the answer must have more

How to calculate distance and fuel usage
Now that you know a few of the basics, you can start using the Flight Computer to estimate your
distance or fuel usage in relation to time. Simply select the numeral on the bezel that represents the
time interval and set the bezel so that number is directly above the numeral on the face represents the
number of miles, kilometers, nautical miles or pounds of fuel traveled or used in that time period. Then,
as time passes, you locate the lapsed time on the bezel and look directly below it for the approximate
distance traveled, fuel usage, etc.
How to convert basic units
13 14The
Flight Computer is provided with red arrows on
the face for converting to and from nautical miles,
MPH 65 statute miles and kilometers. The Red arrow above
the “A” in “STAT” on the face is for statute miles.
The red arrow above the “U” in“NAUT” on the face is
12 13 14 1

11
16
for nautical miles.

55

The red arrow above the “H” in MPH is for

CHASE-DURER
kilometers.
To convert, for example, 13 KM. to statute and
nautical, move the bezel so that the numeral 13 on
the bezel is directly above the red arrow (above/right
of the “H” in “MPH”) on the face. The statute miles in
31
13 KM. is found on the bezel directly above the red
arrow above the “A” in “STAT” on the face, which is
the numeral 8.1.
Thus 8.1 statute miles equals 13 KM. If you look
directly above the red arrow above the “U” in “NAUT”
you will see the numeral 7.05. This is the number of
nautical miles in 8.1 statute miles and 13 KM.

Other conversions
You can also do other conversion calculations on the Flight Computer. You can, for example, convert
pounds of aviation gasoline, kerosene, or JP-4 to gallons. You can also convert from gallons to pounds.
Simply move the bezel so that the 10 is over the numeral on the face that represents the number of
pounds in 1 gallon of that type of liquid (see the conversion table on next page), find the number of
gallons you’re converting on the bezel and look directly below that at the corresponding number on the
face. That is the number of pounds!
The example below converts 20 gallons of oil (petroleum) to pounds. The Conversion Table shows
1 gallon = 7.35 pounds, so setting the 10 on the bezel over 7.35 and looking under 20 on the bezel
shows 147 pounds on the watch face scale.

Use the Flight Computer only to
estimate fuel usage and travel distance.
Do not rely on it for navigation purposes.
Its purpose is to allow you to keep track
of approximate fuel usage or distance
traveled over time and to estimate
equivalent kilometers, statute and or
nautical miles. Any other use is outside
the design parameters of the Flight
Computer and is not recommended.
