What essentials do you always have on board?

What things do you consider it essential to always have on board for
every flight? Not just things required by law, but things that you
personally believe in having on the aircraft before you leave the
ground.

I would tell you, but you'll dispute the relevance thereof. The
"law" literally requires nothing.

The "law" literally requires nothing.

Pilot certificate? Photo ID? Medical certificate? AFM/W&B? Logbook (for
students)?

basic survival gear, a knife, fire starter, some water. In
the winter shelter.

A 45 automatic and 50 rounds or a shotgun.


See Canada laws on required equipment for flights in
wilderness. They require fishing equipment, a rifle [they
don't like handguns] and have a very extensive list.

What happens if you land somewhere in the city that requires a permit
to carry such items?

The gun is needed more in the city than in the wilderness,

Escape From New York?

A cooler with some Cokes for during the flight and with a couple of
beers for after the flight is also nice... Since I always have a .45 on
me, I guess that counts also... Usually don't have 50 rounds in my plane
though... I might have 1000 rounds of various calibers in my truck or
Jeep, but I don't carry that many in my plane... Sounds like I need to
restock...

I am so very thankful I live in New Zealand.
