This is not a Black Hog product. You can buy them from Black Hog but also from many other pilot resource websites and stores for less money usually as well, these are actual real life pilot kneeboards. I have one in my basket on Amazon currently at £25 plus postage.
That is exactly the reason for the plastic - you can write on it and not permanently mark that is below. So you can note down freqs clearances etc and still have the info on the paper below
Nice might get one for myself as im so forgetful i forget who i am......any way just a suggestion if it doesn't work out on the knee . You could always strap it to one of your arm rests on your chair . As currently i do what you do and use note pad books ......i have a whole collection of them on my computer desk !!! . Anyway Dave nice chatting can't wait to see the next video from RG !!!! :-)
Cap: Sign me up for the app! I've been watching your vids for a couple of years and have now invested. Ryzen 3600x, MSI Radeon 5600-XT Mech and starting off learning the A-10C. I can get it up AND down again and occasionally hit the things that I throw stuff at! Not bad for a week! Your app idea would really be a great way of learning the systems whilst using DCS. Keep it up and give Pickles a high 4 from me!
I use that kneeboard in real life! Can recommend! Regards the weird looking thing on the top-right corner in the pictures, that's a Carbon Monoxide detector. Usually, that hole in the corner of the kneeboard is instead used to hold a stopwatch, very handy for timing your holds and turns etc. One problem I have with mine is the metal clip allows your paper pad to slide around - it needs some grippy rubber "feet" to hold the paper in place. Any idea where one might buy a couple of suitable feet?
got a feeling the see through is to lay over your vfr writing pads, so you can scribble things down with a chinagraph pencil, then wipe it off when your done, so your not wasting vfr pads?
I wanted to be the first to tell you that you take the page that you want and fold the ones above it to the back and put the one that you want over the cover.
3:50 could be used with a blackboard marker: make a mission template with all the relative info (call signs, mission briefing, etc) with blank spaces for the actual date, you would write on the plastic flap and when you're done, just wipe over it and re-write on it!
Grim Reapers it’s a haptic feedback cushion that sits on your seat. It’s perfect for dcs, mine turns up in about a month (long lead time) so can get in touch when it’s here?
*** If I get this, then I have to get a Flight Suit, G-Suit, Helmet , Gloves , .... Oh Geez - I'm in trouble. :) Great Video,
..oh wow I could use this for my job
Cap: "I'm going to review this pilot's log book."
Pickles: "I'm going to review this log book's box and packaging."
lols
I have the A5 one for real flying. And find its to big for the cockpit. And a faf when flicking though charts.
HS, Its the first time I see your face cap!
Now I know why you hide it 😝.
Cat and Celofans..... xD. I know them very well ;)
Ahhhhhh shit Caps moving up now. People are sending you products for review cause they see you're a big influencer in the sim scene. Gratz man.
Thanks, about time :)
use a wax pencil Cap, can be rubbed of afterwards

Clever
@@grimreapers Grease pencil or dry erase marker makes them easy to clean.

Dum dum fluff just wants the box you monster
BlackHog are awesome, love their products.. the button boxes are top of the line and the new pilot log book addition is spot on.
CHEERS!
Nice video Pickles :)
Need Foreflight on a tablet for DCS.
F for the cat.
Love Pickles doing a complete inventory of items and generally, getting in the way!
that's not getting in the way. it's called 'helping'
Cap I need 1 hour video of Pickle cuddling
My pleasure x
BlackHog could start sending some very nice gear i saw in their website for Cap, RIGHT?
That would be nice :)

You can see such a stopwatch here:
www.worthpoint.com/worthopedia/pilots-mechanical-stopwatch-kneeboard-247279805
It’s not a gadget. Premium pilot map for jeppeson flight, airway and ATC manuals and checklists

Bah, humbug! Bit of paper and an elastic band. Voila, a kneeboard!
Cat try’s to eat packaging. Possibly the greatest product review I have ever watched.
Nice! Will definitely get the tablet version. 👍
Thanks Nile you rock!
@2:47 That doesn't look like a FOD-proof pen, Cap. Lol
@3:37 That's better, lol
Yes don't drop that pen in cockpit under your ejector seat !!!! could end up with an involuntary ejection !!!! .......very messy !!!
An iPad mini with a thigh strap would be perfect.
Hot sheet = Sheet hot! Love it.

I’ve just ordered a jet seat from Andre. Would you like me to let you know what’s it’s like and worth reviewing ?
Im curious about that, let me know.

@@grimreapers i think , he want to say fighter jet seat
