![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ( No Pros Listed From Reviewer ) Cons( No Cons Listed From Reviewer ) General CommentsThis is an excellent flight desk to help me stay organized in the cockpit on cross country solo flights. I can open it up and put it on the right seat and have my sectional, flight plans, E6B, and pencils readily available. |

ConsOdd geometry, not visible in catalog. The spring clip at the top will hold about 1/8 inch of paper, but the top lid will hold a half inch of paper so it is an odd duck in actual use. Visualize carrying a laptop that always has its lid open at least 3/8 inch. I fixed it by some creative metal bending so it has a slimmer profile, otherwise I would have returned it.

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Good construction and a good price ConsThe size is a little to much. I have problems getting it into my flight bag. If you can reduced the size by two inches in its widest part it will be great! General Comments( No General Comments Listed From Reviewer ) |

Nice large surface for writing on. ConsIt is large but not to the point of being useless. General CommentsI have found this item to be helpful for organization of flight materials. It's large size obviously has its advantages and disadvantages but I have been pleased with it overall. I am a little over 6' so my seat is a set back as far as it will go which gives me room to use something this big. If I had to move my seat forward much I might find it hard to use this item. |

However, I had a bit of trouble when it came to the clipboard clamp. No matter how hard I tried, I couldn't get it to open. A screwdriver did the trick, though - turned out it was just jammed a bit. A quick pry solved the problem. Now it works like a dream! |
