Best Aircraft Knee Pads

I have tried many knee pads over the years. Singles, doubles and other unique boards. This one really works, it's light, smaller than most and uses more of the 5x7 platform than the 6x9. However, most checklists, including the Checkmate brand, can be cut (compact model) and slipped into a shortened jep clear plastic holder, and with an extra hole, everything works. Other lists can be almost 6x9, but with no borders, they work again in jep plastic. Cutting and slicing means nothing as you get used to it very quickly. I put about 7 pages in this folder and I like that they are all accessible without damaging my top sheet for gaps and vectors. I've included a couple of emergency checklists, and they're more accessible than the usual metal clip-on notepads. You have to take everything to find what you want, here I'm just turning the pages. I used it on my left foot, not my right. I can then go to the current plane's checklist and place it on my right thigh. Pilots will understand what I mean I think! I hope this all helps!

Pros
  • Very Fast Shipping

Solid construction that allows notes to be taken while flying.
