Quote from: Live2Learn on September 14, 2015, 03:18:02 AM If I need to reference them, I can use the search functions of Adobe to quickly locate relevant information. If I need them I can print them in the field. 60-3, and 66-1, plus copies of all relevant ICS, CAP, and (for WAWG) WSDOT ES forms on the iPad. I also carry current versions of CAPR 60-1, 60-2. There is no requirement that your CAPF 101 be paper, only that it be presented at the Mission base. The iPad is always with me in the cockpit as I use it for multiple tasks. About four treatments of glue application to the exposed end, each allowed to dry before applying the next, will give you a very useful pad that is the perfect size for your kneeboard and for the cockpit.Īlso, I carry the CAPF 101 on my iPad. Expose just the end of the stack, then smear Elmers glue or any other wood glue on the exposed end of the stack. You can bind the pad by compressing the packet of graph paper with the card stock on the bottom. To create a pad simply buy a piece of card stock and cut it into 4 1/4" x 5 1/4" pieces. You can make a kneeboard sized pad by buying a packet of gridded paper and cutting the sheets in half. The pre-printed grids work well to facilitate map drawing, recording cardinal directions, establishing definite columns and blanks for repetitive notes (like headings, altitudes, target descriptions, etc.). One thing I've seen (and use) is gridded paper cut and bound to fit a kneeboard. Some Wings have scanner forms that help you organize information. In my experience, a ball point pen works better than one of the gel pens because the ink is less likely to smear. Regardless, write in ink because your notes are important. Pencil lead shavings in the carpet could be a source of corrosion for the decking. An errant mark on the aircraft's metal skin, unprotected deck plates, or any other unprotected (unpainted!) aluminum surface can introduce graphite which will eventually work its way into the metal causing a weak spot. Regarding your proposed equipment list may I suggest you skip the pencils? FWIW, graphite will destroy unprotected aluminum. But, if it uses the "new" system, then you can ditch all the pre-grided sectional pages as well as the markers and just have a regular sectional with pencils.Ī small notepad for taking noted during the briefing and the flightĪ kneeboard ( I have this one and this one that I rotate between)Ī couple of extra pencils (seriously, I've dropped every pencil I used in the last 5 flights and had to use backups) If it uses the old system, then the system you have should work. I don't know if your wing uses the "new" Cell grid system or the "old" grid system. Also, ditch the 104s as everything is online in WMIRS.ĬAP Gridded Sectional, printed on 8.5x11" sheets ()and in clear sheet protectors so I can write on them in dry erase marker. For me though, I laminate my 101 and a shrunken 161 and keep them in my wallet. ![]() List of emergency signals, paulin signals etc.Īnti-Nausea gum and ziplock bags, just in case.Īll good.
