Maybe add a second (back) page with AWOS/ATIS information and approach
briefing checklist.

Just about everything from AWOS is included. I'll see about the rest and see
about the second page.

I like it a lot as is- just a couple of possible suggestions:

1. Make the map regional instead of national, so you can put more
detail on it. But this means you have to maintain multiple versions,
etc...


I've thought about that, but at the moment all I can do is make a Canadian
version with the help of one of our Canadian friends. Maybe one day I can
get around to making a version to match the AFD regions. Shouldn't be too
hard, just finding the time.

2. If you have the right tools, render it as a fillable PDF form so
people can type in their non-changing flight plan info and save it.
Nitpick.


I have thought of that. I do have the tools, but again, the time is an
issue. I'll put it on the list to add.

3. I personally would rather have an enroute Wx block than the 12000'
wind, but I'm in Boston.


I can add an enroute block back in, but if I keep it on the same page,
something will have to get smaller. I was trying to keep things at a
reasonable size to accommodate those among us with less than perfect
eyesight.

4. Guessing you built this in Quark or some such, not in Word- I'd
like to have the source so I could modify this for my preferences
rather than nagging you

Best,
-cwk.

Quark is correct, sorry. But I will try to get as many suggestions in the
next revision as I can. I've already enlarged the map and made a few other
minor changes, and reposted over the first one.

Thanks and fly safe.
