67november Posted May 20, 2009 Report Share Posted May 20, 2009 one of those black clippy things you get from staples (sorry about the bad description... i don't know what they're called!). J- They're called Binder clips. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gomer Pylot Posted May 21, 2009 Report Share Posted May 21, 2009 This may be obvious, but reading this thread, I'm not sure it is to everyone: You can rotate the kneeboard to the right (or left, depending on which leg it's on) so that it's on the outside of your thigh, and completely out of the way of your arm, and only put it back on top of the thigh when you need to write or read something. Mine mostly stays on the side. I don't use it for holding charts, electronic devices, or other bulky stuff, just some paper for writing important stuff down, and some frequency cheat sheets. Charts stay elsewhere, in a pocket or bag, and the GPS is mounted on the panel. You don't need to put everything you own on your kneeboard.

Vassago Posted May 23, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 23, 2009 interesting ideas, I'll have to figure out what works for me I like the 3 ring binder idea, to easily flip through notes/chart/flighth plan etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
copter doctor Posted May 23, 2009 Report Share Posted May 23, 2009 For my x/c flights in a 22 my instructor had me put all the frequencies and pertinent info on a sheet of paper and put it under the plastic floor cover so all you have to do is look down to get next freq. etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hedge36 Posted May 26, 2009 Report Share Posted May 26, 2009 flip up glasses... write real small. Ooh, that's a GREAT idea. I'll have to try it... Actually, dual visor on the SPH5 could be handy with that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
