Any particular reason for an RAF one? I bought one of these www.thehangar.com and much preferred it. Clearly, not when Staneval were around!

Courtney Mil, thanks for your response. Mk2 is current RAF issue (see photo below)



Let me know if you have one like this in decent nick (ideally with the clear plastic pockets on the rings) and whether you are prepared to sell it.

MG, thanks for your response as well. Its just the kneeboard I'm most familiar with and I never had any problem with it.

Looking forward to your responses.

The issue aircrew kneeboards were very rarely use by any of our aircrew when i last worked in a flying clothing bay. Mist of them were just left at the bottom of their pegs to gather dust.

Used mine all the time, but it only really works with the triangular wedges down each side unless you have a velcro kneepad - otherwise it slips round the wrong way at inopportune moments like going double asymmetric after rotate!!!!
