Equipment you might want before starting Primary




 * Flight pub bag - You will definitely want a bag to carry your pubs to the aircraft. Wings has some nice bags.  However, there is a gentleman in Meridian who makes the perfect size bag that will take you all the way to the fleet.  You can see his work at stoweitbags.com.  He will make you a quality, fully customized bag for 35 dollars.  This is the same bag that practically every pilot going through jet school at Meridian buys.




 * Kneeboards - While you will be issued a "Wings" kneeboard at no expense to you, many students prefer to have a fabric based regular or trifold kneeboard instead of the issued monster. You can pick these up at Wings on Barrancas Ave.  It is the building with the mini T-6 on the roof.  Check their website as the hours are a bit odd.  They have some other things that might help you as well (i.e. extra plastic sleeves for blue brains, finger lights, approach plate leg straps).  It is worth stopping by while you are down there for API.
