    I don't know if you can get one second hand. As you know all professional pilots use them everyday. :D It's so useful!

    Seriously though if I had one I'd give it to you! But I never owned one. Somehow I got away with using the CRP-1 for my ATPLs and no you cannot have it. :p

    Try Ebay there bound to one or two available for next to nothing.

    the reason why some flight computers don't work for the ATPL exams is that sometimes, the wind side of the computer doesn't cover the higher airspeeds, so you might not be able to do some flight planning calculations. Mine is a Santech E6B and it is an aluminium model and did the job just fine.
