I just "finished" (truthfully, these things are always a work in progress lol) building my kit. Thought process: Basic kit that handles most contingencies that is always on your person. This would mean something that attaches to the body. Perhaps a belt kit, maybe a vest, maybe cargo pants...

That was my first time in a tail dragger. CFI was definitely landing that :D

Borderline. I did want to do a loop and a roll but time was a factor lol. My first time wearing a parachute too. "just pull this large, square ring"

At least basic maneuvers exposure, if not flat out training. Essentially something that will demonstrate to the student that, "no, a tail slide will not instantaneously result in a mushroom cloud on the ground". Something that will help minimize the panic potential for the student pilot if...

204? Needs more afterburner ........ :D _

I created this thing for an iPad Mini and it works ok in a DA40. Not much of anything works ok for me in a C172 so I'll likely try a yoke mount if I go back into a 172. I could never see using a full size iPad in a GA cockpit (unless it has its own mounting space in the console)...

Ah, I think I understand lol (I already have a headset adapter, Barnstormer Audio, to patch in)
