Cool. This is like Heloise meets Sky King!

Another thing we've done for both the planes we've owned: Fix up the log
books.

When we bought our Warrior, the logs and associated paper work were in a
cheesy plastic zipper pouch -- basically a glorified zip lock bag. This
seemed odd to me, for something so valuable, so we bought a soft leather
briefcase, and had a brass plate made for it with the make and "N" number on
it.

When we bought our Pathfinder, the paperwork was a little nicer, but not
much. So, we bought ANOTHER leather briefcase, and had another brass plate
made for it. This time we got the kind of briefcase with a ring-binder in
the center, which is GREAT for holding all the service bulletins, receipts,
etc. that you want to hang on to. Just 3-hole punch them, and pop them in.
All the various log books stow neatly in the many pockets in the briefcase.

Now everything is easily transported to and from our A&P or avionics shop,
and in a suitably classy case.
