Ted,

I wear a home made knee board kind of thing. It's just cobbled
together from sheet aluminum, velcro-tape and a velcro-belt.

Here are a couple pictures:

As far as looking down too much... don't. I mean, it's a matter
of training. I had to train myself not to stare at the instruments.

Wow, I hope you did a good job of training. That's an awful lot going on
in your lap. I hope you figure out a way to combine things into one
instrument (maybe a PDA with a GPS card on it) that you can mount on the
canopy ledge or with a suction cup.
