Best knee pad

I used it while working on my private pilot license. My flight instructor's husband flies an F-35 and said he uses it. I was wondering how it would work for general aviation, but I liked it. A simple safe place for notepad paper, pen/pencil storage for flight notes etc and a phone. It was wonderful.

Pros
  • Hard wearing finish
Cons
  • Definitely bad product

Great product suitable for cars and automotive electronics

I have no problems with the product. Works as intended and well finished. At the time of purchase I didn't think I would receive a tablet but I did. I solved the "no tablet slot" problem by adding velcro to the device. Ideal for 8 inch tablets. Just one more weird thing - this little bag. I'm not sure what to use it for as it definitely won't fit in every modern mobile phone. I wish there was room for a modern cell phone in this device.

Pros
  • Decent performance
Cons
  • Not the best

Highly recommended for every pilot.

This is the fourth and absolutely best knee pad I have ever had. It's well constructed and feels premium. It looks like it was designed by a pilot. Accessories are removable, others can be ordered from Flyboy so you can customize them to suit your needs. The only drawback is that the reversible model is only available in black. I would prefer olive green to match my uniform.

Pros
  • dope 🔥
Cons
  • threadbare

I fly Flyboys on my Diamond DA-20

What a great knee brace! It even works in the relatively compact cockpit of my DA20. Other knee pads I've tried get in the way of the stick or just spread out too much. Because this sheet is reversible, I can open my checklist pages to the right and not get in the way of the stick. Also, I have to say I'm impressed with Flyboys as a company. There was a selection error with my order and they did their best to fix it! Bravo!

Pros
  • Test for a year
Cons
  • Appearance

Ideal for small planes with a joystick

As an Evektor Sportstar LSA student pilot, I quickly recognized the need for a knee brace. I tried a "small" one, but it was still big enough to get in the way of the handle a bit, as was the parking brake valve handle between the seats. I bought these flyboys and they are perfect. It wraps tightly around the leg without protruding to catch anything. Velcro around the perimeter makes it fully personalized. In fact, I'm ordering a second one today for the other leg. I plan to keep the…

Pros
  • Good value for money
Cons
  • Something different

Just make sure he's free from your yoke!

I finally have it... The pens fall to the floor trying to record the altimeter and frequency readings... I decided I needed a knee pad but not this one, sharp metal edges. I chose this product even though I thought the name was a bit silly. I felt particularly stupid when the box arrived with the F-16 on the cover. LOLI boarded a Cessna 172 with Tom Cruise boasting. ...not really... When I did the takeoff run (prelaunch checklist) I checked that "the flight controls are loose and correct" and…

Pros
  • great product
Cons
  • I have no aversion to it it's just great

Works well as a kneeboard, less like a clipboard

I need something for field testing as well as something useful when I drive and it fits very well. It closes really well and the Velcro works great too. I have purchased other accessories with velcro separately from the manufacturer and they are also good quality and the velcro is great. It's a lot of stuff, and with the belt loop it gets a little bulky and a bit unwieldy at times, but it seems to work well, maybe better if you're taller (I'm about 5.5ft). In any case, it has been said that the

Pros
  • Great construction
Cons
  • Crumpled packaging
