Both my son and I thought one of the most difficult aviation skills to
master was folding and refolding charts while flying.

Try it in an open cockpit. Typically, it just ends up getting mashed under my
butt.... :-)

I do use mine in an open cockpit! One thing I learned is to KEEP them
under my butt between check points. Also, keep it there when doing
aggressive slips on short final. In a Junior Ace, this creates a lot of
suction on the high side of the cockpit...had to walk off the approach
end at a fly in once to get my maps back
