Is the electronic one better than the E6B manual flight computer. When
is one better than the other. I now have both. Do you have any
recommendations on using them.

I didn't want to mess with the manual ones so I just learned on the
electronic. On the ground they are very fast for flight planning. I
remember during flight planning exercises in ground school I was finished
and waited around for 15 minutes while the rest of the class fiddled with
their manual ones.

In the air I had to learn to run it with one hand using my thumb, but it
wasn't really a problem.
