ForceProtector GearLLC FPG Kneeboard

With the iPad 11 Pro is very useful. I can carry my pens and paper.

Came with a shattered clipboard. Otherthan that, its good i guess. Used it for Vfr today

Haven’t been PIC yet, I will update review when I do.With that said, first impression is well made, sturdy, practical and functional. If your looking and ran into this one, just get it.Love the fact I can remove the clipboard area, since it uses a rugged zipper. My 10.5 iPad Pro fits good, hard to access volume or power button, and impera full view on the corners. Get a bit on the way when using ForeFlight. I think I’ll end up using vuelvo to avoid the corners.The “cell phone pocket” I ended up using for a battery pack- works great. Wish pen holders were horizontal so I could just leave them there, so I used the pocket to store pens/pencils. For my Apple Pencil I’m attaching a pen holder to the iPad so I could leave it there at all times and have easy access.The foam chalks are great, comfy and practical.All in all, a great product.

My really old kneeboard finally gave up the ghost. Although I have tried iPad versions of kneeboards, what I really wanted was a place to write on letter sized paper folded in half.I have bought several kneeboards since, looking for a Goldilocks combination that does not seem to exist. One problem, shared by all of them I have tried is: How do you "close" it so that you can put it in your flight bag without messing with the papers on the kneeboard? Not to mention that when you put the flaps under the kneeboard all the stuff in the right slot pocket falls out, and the whole thing is a few inches thick.The problem with this particular kneeboard is that it is really wide. Too wide for my thigh, which few have called scrawny. But I would need to be an Olympic weightlifter for this to fit on my leg. When I would write on the clipboard pages, it would rotate to the side, no matter how tight I made the strap.In the end, it was just too hard to use, and so I returned it.

I purchased this kneeboard through Force Protector Gear a few years ago, and I was surprised to see it on Amazon. Great product, very well built. Just a few things to consider.1. The newer iPads are too big for this kneeboard. I have a 10.2 inch iPad (2019 model) and it stretches out the the elastic corners where the iPad is installed.- a. Buy a cheap/generic iPad protection case (the thinnest you can find) and install adhesive (hook-side) Velcro strips to the back of the case. This will allow you to attach the iPad in place on the loop-side Velcro that is already installed on the kneeboard.- b. The iPad Mini is too small to reach the elastic corners to be properly secured, so just repeat the steps above and problem solved.2. Realistically, this kneepad is too big if you’re flying a small airplane with a yoke in front of you... and/or if you’re a big person. It is probably best used if you’re flying something with a flight control stick or you have a lot more room in the cockpit. Try it out before you get airborne. You may want to practice getting your ATIS information and taxi around the non-movement area of your local airport. Just to see if you’ll be able to write information comfortably, before you have to aviate, navigate, and communicate all at the same time.

Main picture in this listing is not correct. Your ipad is not held by the 4 corners. Other issues as well, but that is the main complaint. Overall just not a good product.

Excellent product

Some modifications made for the better.

Item not as described. No corner elastic bands to insert an ipad like advertised.Only way to use an ipad with this kneepad is to put some velcro on the back of your ipad or ipad cover... Description cleary says its made to use with an electronic tablet..
