ASA KB-1-A Aluminum VFR Kneeboard with Quick-Reference Flight Data

The ASA KB‑1‑A aluminum VFR kneeboard is a solid choice for student and general aviation pilots. It feels sturdy and well‑built, with a durable aluminum base that stays flat and doesn’t flex while you’re flying. The quick‑reference flight data printed right on the board is handy, saving time and keeping important numbers right in front of you.The clip holds charts and notes securely, and the overall layout makes it easy to organize flight plans and checklists in real time. It’s simple, effective, and much better than flimsy plastic or fabric alternatives.A great kneeboard that’s practical, tough, and very pilot‑friendly.

Not much else to say -- performs as advertised. Used a clipboard before? Congrats, you'll know how to use this high tech bit of kit! All the VFR info is a nice touch, but obviously a little hard to read once you have a notepad on it. It would be good to have in a pinch though. Overall it is about the size of an iPad Air/Pro 11 inch. I usually sit with the seat all the way forward in a C172 and the yoke has never hit it, even on takeoff/landing or in performance maneuvers like stalls.There is not much adjustability on the band due to the relatively short length of the velcro patch. That sucks a tad if you have thin distance runner thighs like I do, but for most it is probably fine. It stays put perfectly well while flying, but if I forget to remove it and exit the cockpit while wearing the kneeboard, it quickly becomes and ankleboard. Awkward.The pen holder loop is again a good thought but a bit silly in practice -- I think you'd spend more time trying to put the pen back into it than you would using the pen to get the latest ATIS. I fly with my pen in the arm pocket of my flight jacket for this very reason, but if you don't fly in old Air Force regalia, YMMV.Overall a solid product, cheap, and a great starter for someone just entering flight school like I was. You can always upgrade to something else later!

I bought this after watching a ton of videos and reading online of everything I needed to begin my flight training. Some of the items I've realized I didn't actually need, but this kneeboard is not one of those.I fly with this kneeboard on every single flight I go on with a pad of paper secured by the clamp and a Pilot G-2 (aka the best pen in the world) hooked in with the pen slot. The information can be useful if you can find the time to read what is on it. I'd fly with this kneeboard and pad of paper over having an iPad any day.

The kneeboard is a great size, about a half page.Having all the information printed on the kneeboard is a great little cheat sheet for quick information.The corners feel a bit sharp, I'm guessing these are from a stamping process where the smoothing of the corners isn't a thorough as it could be.The pen loop is a convenient place and keeps the pen right where you need it when you need it.Other kneeboards have more features but this one is a just works solution.

I use it while flying on a regular basis. The only problem is the strap is too long for a guy like me with skinny legs. It slides more than I'd like. Might have to cut and re-sew the strap, wrap twice around your leg or pin it to adjust the length. Recommended.

I like this knee board for the size and fits well.I was righting instructions on my tablet but this makes it so much better when ATC is rushed or a fast talker putting out lots of into.It does have some good cheat sheet into but never use it since i always have a unlined white tablet on it.I use a 6x9 pad.

Lo que necesitaba

Shipping and delivery process were simple and faster than expected, many thanks to both seller and Amazon for making it possible to acquire this tool for my day by day job at Ground Operations at my country's main airport.PS; I recommended this ASA clapboard to my colleagues in the aviation industry ;)

Muy buena calidad, funcional

Sturdy, does the job, recommended

Me sirve demasiado para mis vuelos VFR

Nice to have some of the information, although as a Canadian some of the information is not relevant. Nice and sturdy.

I feel like I can't say to much because it serves it purpose. I use it every flight and it lives up to my expectations. Its a good price I'd recommend
