FlyBoys Reversible Kneeboard - Clipboard & Pen Holder - Reconfigurable Design - for Professional Pilots, General Aviation

Thumbs up

If you are a military pilot you know that this is literally the only option for a knee board. If you have ever used the garbage other brands sell you know that Flyboys is 100 times better. I wish the price was lower, but oh well. Flyboys has cornered the market on quality kneeboards.

Exactly what I was looking for. Perfect size for a small aircraft.

I am an Air Force pilot - I wear this over my G-suit every time I fly and it does exactly what I need. Stays secure, and does not interfere with throttle or ejection handle (I wear on left leg). Easy to write on, but is flexible enough to be comfortable.Many other pilots in my unit buy the same one- it was recommended to me and I will recommend it to others.-1 point for the clip board clip- the plastic corner pieces come off, but this affects nothing.

I actually use this while being a Behind The Wheel Driving Instructor. Better for me than clipboards, notebooks, etc.. Was a convenience game changer for my lessons. Side note: after the “what is that” moment, students seem to think I REALLY mean business. Pretty much hanging on every word I say after that! Perhaps “clothes” do make the man?!My only issue with this is that the leg strap seems made for larger legs/clothing. I can fix that with some leftover Velcro I have.

I purchased the Flyboys kneeboard because I wanted something that would not rotate around my thigh as much as a standard flat metal kneeboard did. I also really liked the idea of a kneeboard to which I could attach my checklist pages.In those two respects, the kneeboard does pretty well. It doesn’t rotate (much) and I don’t have to worry about a separate set of checklist pages sliding off my knee and wandering around the cockpit.There are a few things that I have found somewhat disappointing:1. The hole spacing on the eyelet strip is inconsistent / does not match the hole spacing of the Flyboys Checklist Page Sheet Protectors nor their Standard Checklist Pages - see photo.2. The fabric on the inside of the right side pocket is not sewn or glued. I expect that as I pull things (like my cell phone) out of this pocket, they will catch on this unsecured flap and tear the fabric.3. The Velcro hook patches on the underside/bottom of the kneeboard cause the fabric on pants / flightsuit to get picked.4. It would be nice if Flyboys provided instructions / suggestions on what the other Velcro patches, loops, etc. on the underside/bottom of the kneeboard are used for.5. It would be nice if they offered a slender curved cushion or silicone pad that could Velcro onto the underside/bottom of the kneeboard to provide better no-slide operation on top of the thigh.6. It is somewhat bulky in my flightbag - it would be nice if it folded back onto itself to help keep the stuff on the clipboard secure when in the flightbag.

I’m an old corporate pilot and now have my short term memory restored. From the clearance, taxi instructions and radio frequency changes the kneeboard does the trick.

Perfect
