Going through some Molds my partner had done in the past I came across this little gem. <img src="http://i14.photobucket.com/albums/a349/mrmudd/DSC01629.jpg" border=0> <img src="http://i14.photobucket.com/albums/a349/mrmudd/DSC01630.jpg" border=0> What this was was a prototype for a kneeboard for mounting Palmpilots or calculators too. Any of you guys see a need for this. It has a flat side and the theigh Contourside. With two Slots for attaching Straps. There 5" x 3" in size I was thinking of runnign a batch of these in Olive green and khaki. Let me know if anyon e is interested...

I don't know of anyone that flies with a palmpilot/calculator strapped to their leg. With maps, multiple info cards and saddle bags it seems a little much to me. Cool idea if we were to ever go to electronic pubs in the jet. |

The army uses Palms for Weight and Balance Calc and gps map programs etc. Like i said, we in the fighter world allready have our comfort items. and Helo Guys dont Punch out... But you never know what a persons needs are. They work well for the forearm as well. Find some ideas for this....

Pilots are issued these items free of charge from supply. Most guys buy a better quality one from commercial outlets if they want them, but almost all G-suits are now modified with elastic straps on the thigh that keep you from needing a kneeboard at all. Coach |

Why didn't I ever think of Ipods? We should push for those in every A-10 for the long haul to and from the target area. Don't get me wrong, kneeboards are very important and I know guys that use up to three of them on their legs somehow, but the modern-day hawg pilot prides himself on being technologically-challenged (case and point: the awe and confusion caused by recent briefings on the capabilities of the A-10C). |

these would be great for paramedics. Especially for rapid chart notes. a pen holder of some sort would be great. Additionally a molded arm board for a forearm like NFL uses would be cool especially if it could hold a basic calculator with section rapid drug review. |

Great, now our pilots will want their PE lead to power their IPOD too. ROFL |

IF ya want one send me an email of your snail mail address. If you come up with ideas on a usage let me know, and I can modify the Mold to suit your paramedic needs. This could very well launch a brand of products for you.
