    Pros

    Great lap board for both charts and nav log. As a VFR pilot, it's always on my lap with my chart. The back side has some thin foam rubber strips that prevent the board from sliding off my lap. Coupled with a fabulous little pen/pencil clip that attaches and stays put, I always have something to write on and to write with.

    My CFI recommended this product so I tried it. It's been a real help.

    Pros

    Double clips work well. Holds well when folded out.

    Cons

    Could use a strap when its folded to hold in place.

    General Comments

    Works good on a long cross country, but gets in the way when landing, at least for my long legs. If it would strap down when folded in half it would work better. For the money not bad, but I'll probably try a differnt setup in the future.

    Cons

    I thought one side would have a leg strap. But it didn't.
    Foam backing works good to keep everything from sliding
    off your legs, but if your'e in some good turbulence, it
    doesn't set so good.

    General Comments

    I added a leg strap to the left side (my preferance) and it
    works fine for what I wanted. Charts to the left. Nav sheet
    on the right.

    Pros

    Great for holding sectionals and doesn't slip off your lap. Placarded with lots of useful info for quick reference.

    Cons

    Some of the clips can be awkward, and can do damage inside a flight bag.
