IFR navigating flight preparation.

ksa5223:

From the time that Australia first allowed Single Pilot IFR Commuter operations in 1967, I was involved.

Keep it simple and concise, I used an "A5" size knee pad with a template covered with stick on plastic and and a chinograph pencil to record the necessary information, clearances etc, for the flight. A route data card system was also used together with performance data. All in "A5" size.

You must have a clip system on the control column to hold the necessary card when you are ready to use it.

I was the greatest advocate for Single Pilot Operations in those days, however as years went by, I changed my views in favour of Multi- Crew Operation.

If you are interested in the formats used in those days let me know and I will scan some for you.
