Personally, I carry the piddle packs that contain the stuff used in
disposable diapers. $4 for a pack of three in the camping department at
KMart.


I fly jumpers....if my bladder gets out of synch with fuel needs it can
be distressing. One fine afternoon I got out of synch but think no
bigge...I have a water bottle. When I took the cap of the bottle I
dropped it..grrr. Filled the bottle then being worried about a spill I
decided to toss it out the window. Slowed up, opened the window and
moved the open top bottle out into the slipstream....


I called manifest and had the next load bring me a rag to clean up my
sunglasses, inside of the door, windshield....


The trick is to point the open end of the bottle outboard and aft as you
stick it out the window. Personally, I prefer the 32oz Gatorade bottles
myself, I've had to use a Snapple bottle in a pinch (first had to dump the
Mystery Oil out, prioraties!) though I had to empty it a couple of times.
THAT get's interesting, I'll tellya what, towing a banner at 300',
jettisoning the lav, flying the plane and ahem pinching it off...
