The immediate follow-up to the equipment post is…what would I change?
First – I need a stirrup thing. Clip it into your biners and push your legs against it, and it helps hold your legs up. Hour long flights are tiring, yo!
Magnets on my brake handles have to go. Clips. Clips. Magnets suck. They are constantly letting go.
My wing needs to go to the shop. 🙁 It’s been given a band-aid, but I need to take it somewhere or send it somewhere (Bob’s going to show me where later) to get the ripped panel replaced. The band-aid will hold until we get home. And the tear isn’t in a vital place anyway.
I’ll need to do a decent fix on my flight deck. One of the zippers is busted because of a failed jury-rig. I could get a new one…that’d be ok too.
Interestingly, I think that’s about it.
Edit: Oh, and a shorter antenna for my ham radio. Or a better position for it. I’ve got it velcroed to my flight deck, but the really long antenna sticks out in an inconvenient way.
