REVIEW MISSED APPROACH*
Paste this into openoffice and get the font sizes right, then print off a bunch. Fill each one out with the relevant frequencies/radials/altitudes for each approach.

Get one of these: IFR Flight File Chart Planner and Organizer - MyPilotStore.com

and put the approach plates across from your checklist plate for each approach.

Get one of these lap boards: ASA Folding Lapboard - MyPilotStore.com

and tuck your new organizer onto the left, and a pad of paper to write clearances etc. on the right.

If anyone has any comments on this set up, they are more than welcome. I just got my IR in June and am still working on my CPL.
