Notes: "The Jeppesen E6B-2A flight computer is a standard full-size, aluminum E-6B. The one thing it has that’s different from other E-6B’s is the grid on the wind side, which is the source of the “Wind Easy” in the name. One of the pictures has a piece of white paper taking the place of the slide to more clearly show that grid. The grid is on the plastic screen itself, and is intended to make it easier to find the spot to put your pencil dot that represents the direction and speed of the wind."
