Instruction Manual
SLIDE RULE
FLIGHT CALCULATION AND NAVIGATOR INSTRUCTION MANUAL
Luminox congratulates you on your purchase of this time piece from the
Lockheed Martin Collection
®
. Designed with pilots in mind, this series
incorporates a flight calculation chronograph that features a slide rule
bezel.
The slide rule bezel enables you to make general calculations such as
multiplication, division, currency conversions and km/mile conversions.
It also serves for special calculations used in piloting an airplane such as
distance, fuel consumption, ascent or descent rate, etc.
In order to apply these functions, your watch has a bi-directional turning
bezel and a scale on the dial that is located on the far outside of the dial
right next to the scale of the turning bezel. All functions are activated by
turning the bezel to the right position and reading the result on either the
bezel or inner scale, depending on the function.
We have provided an illustration of various calculations to help you
understand the processes required. With these simple examples you will
be able to use your watch for a variety of calculations, to pilot an aircraft
or for other uses in your daily life.
We hope you get many years of enjoyment and satisfaction from your
new Lockheed Martin Flight Calculator Chronograph.
ESSENTIAL GEAR. ...for pilots.
