It's ideal for holding my checklist, or an en-route chart. Keeps me from dropping stuff on the floor now that my trument training has increased the number of things to juggle in the cockpit. |

Slip charts/checklist in and out with just one hand. ConsEdges are a little sharp; could be smoother to prevent leaving marks on paper. Could use a better/bigger fastening hook clip. General CommentsI use this on my left leg to hold mostly my checklist, since the checklist I have is long and won't fit on a regular kneeboard. I use a kneeboard on my right leg for a notepad/navplan. The chart holder is good if you don't need to write anything on it and don't want to use 2 hands. Most kneeboards you need one hand to hold the clip and another to grab the chart from it or place it in. It does what it's meant to do. |

Cons( No Cons Listed From Reviewer ) General CommentsI've had this little gadget for 2 years now, works great in a Diamond Star when strapped to the left leg. VFR/IFR kneeboard goes on the right. Only time it doesn't work is when I forget to strap it on. |
