CX-3 Pathfinder Flight Computer

The ASA-CX-3 Flight Computer simplifies flight planning by taking confusion out of the equation. Fast, versatile and easy to use, the CX-3 delivers accurate results quickly and efficiently.

It can be used in all FAA and Canadian pilot, mechanic and dispatcher knowledge examinations. Whether used for flight planning, ground school or knowledge testing, the menu organization mirrors the order in which a flight is normally planned and executed, resulting in a natural flow from one function to the next with a minimum of keystrokes.

Multiple aviation functions can be performed on the CX-3 flight computer, including those related to time, speed, distance, heading, wind, fuel, altitude, cloud base, standard atmosphere, glide, climb and descent, weight and balance, as well as a holding pattern function to help determine input method and holding details.

A calculator, clock, timer and stopwatch are also built in along with mutliple settings for illumination, backlighting, themes, scroll speed, time zones and more.

• The sleek design, ergonomic fit and finish of the CX-3 make it easy to carry.
• The protective cover detaches from the front and snaps onto the back of the computer.
• An anti-slip strip prevents the CX-3 from sliding on smooth desktop surfaces.
• A Theme function provides a convenient way to switch from standard view to night or Daylight views.
• A Backlight function controls the brightness or intensity of the display, and the keypad buttons illuminate in Dusk and Night modes for use in darker environments.
• A Favorites function provides quick access to your most used function and stores the Aircraft Profile, allowing you to store numbers specific to your aircraft.

DESCRIPTION:

Can be used for FAA and Canadian examinations.

The CX-3 complies with FAA Order 8080.6 and Advisory Circular (AC) 60-11, "Testing aids and materials that may be used by applicants for pilot knowledge testing"; therefore, you can take the CX-3 with you to test centers for all pilot, mechanic, dispatcher and FAA exams.

Numerous aviation functions

Calculate everything from actual airspeed and Mach number, fuel burn, holding patterns, to headwind/crosswind components, center of gravity (CG) and everything in between. The menu structure makes it easy to enter, review and edit within each function. Multiple problems can be solved within one function.

Easy to use

The color LCD screen displays a menu of functions, and the inputs and outputs of a selected function, for easy-to-read menus and data displays. The inputs and outputs of each function are separated on the display screen, so it is clear which numbers were entered and which were calculated, along with their corresponding units of measure. The menu organization reflects how a flight is normally planned and executed. The result is a natural flow from one function to another with a minimum of keystrokes: to plan a flight, simply work through the menus in sequential order while filling out your flight plan form.

Non-volatile memory

All settings, including aircraft profile, weight and balance data, trip plan data, user-entered values, and calculations performed by the device will be retained until the batteries are removed or until the user performs a memory reset. Follow the CX-3 User Guide for information on backing up and restoring memory.

Ergonomic Design

The CX-3 has a simple keypad and slim design. The non-slip cover will protect your computer inside the travel bag and fits on the back of the unit for easy storage while in use.

Unit Conversions

The CX-3 has 12 unit conversions: Distance, speed, duration, temperature, pressure, volume, velocity, speed, weight, rate of ascent/descent, angle of ascent/descent, torque and angle. These 12 conversion categories contain 38 different conversion factors for over 100 functions.
