The ol' trusty E6B, with of course a backup on your wrist.

Great picture as always Ron!

Hi, Brian. Thanks! Well, it's not quite an E-6B but darn close! For some interesting (to those who care for that sort of thing... LOL. :D ) reading, try this link... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/E6B The mil-spec'ed CPU-26A/P "Computer, Air Navigation" in the pic was my Viet Nam era "whiz wheel" and fortunately I still have it. Here is another link to a forum thread from a couple of years ago referencing a still valid link to find one brand new... http://forums.watchuseek.com/showthread.php?t=12037 (You'll note my photography skills have improved immeasurably since then... LOL. ) Ebay has quite a few of them available right now and you can pick one up "pre-loved" at a really decent price if you're interested. Let me know what you thought of the read. :D
Cheers,
Ron
