MyGoFlight Premium Leather iPad Rotating Folio Kneeboard for Pilots

Which iPad and tablet models fit this MyGoFlight Folio C kneeboard?

This full-size folio is built for the new iPad 11 inch and accommodates any 9 to 11 inch tablet, including the iPad Pro 11 inch, iPad Pro 10.5 inch, and iPad Air. Four adjustable clips on the rotating cradle hold the tablet securely, so the same folio works across these full-size models. MyGoFlight also makes separate Mini and larger versions.

Does the iPad rotate between landscape and portrait while flying?

Yes. The tablet sits in a rotating cradle you can turn to suit your charts, checklists, or flight planning apps. The cradle locks at every 5 degree increment, so once you set the angle the tablet stays exactly where you positioned it during turbulence or maneuvering. You can switch orientation in flight without the screen drifting.

Does the folio include a clipboard or writing pad?

Yes. A magnetic writing pad is included. It attaches to the inside cover for lap desk use or to the outside for traditional kneeboard operation, so you always have a steady place to jot clearances and notes. Repositioning the pad lets you match it to however you are using the folio in the cockpit or on a desk.

What is the folio made of?

The exterior is genuine leather for a durable, professional look that suits corporate and airline crews as well as students. The interior is lined with soft microfiber that cushions and protects your tablet screen from scratches. Aluminum leg rails and four rubber pads add structure and grip whether you use it on your leg or on a desk.

Can it be used as a lap desk or everyday case, not just a kneeboard?

Yes. This is a true multi-mode folio. With the removable Velcro leg strap attached it works as a cockpit kneeboard. Remove the strap and it serves as a lap desk for flight planning or as a professional everyday tablet case for the office or meeting rooms. The magnetic writing pad repositions to match how you are using it.

Is the leg strap removable?

Yes. The folio uses a removable Velcro leg strap. Keep it attached for secure kneeboard use in the cockpit, then take it off for a clean look when the folio serves as a lap desk or an everyday case. That removable strap is what lets the same folio move easily from the flight deck to a corporate or office setting.

What are the dimensions of this folio kneeboard?

The folio measures 9.75 inches long by 7.75 inches wide by 0.75 inches deep. That footprint is sized to hold full-size 9 to 11 inch tablets securely while staying compact enough to rest comfortably on your leg as a kneeboard or sit flat on a table as a lapboard for flight planning.

Can the stand hold the iPad at different viewing angles?

Yes. An adjustable viewing stand lets you prop the tablet at nearly any angle for comfortable, glare-free viewing on a flat surface such as a desk or table. Combined with the rotating cradle, you can dial in both the orientation and the tilt that work best for your charts, checklists, and apps.

Should I keep a protective case on my iPad inside the folio?

The folio is designed to hold the tablet directly. The soft microfiber lining protects the screen while four adjustable clips grip the device, and the clips are sized for a bare tablet. A very thin case may fit, but a thick or rugged case generally will not seat well, so for the most secure hold use the tablet on its own.

How do I clean and care for the leather folio?

Wipe the genuine leather exterior with a soft, dry or lightly damp cloth to lift dust, then let it air dry. For deeper care, a leather conditioner a couple of times a year helps protect the finish. Avoid harsh solvents and soaking. Keep the microfiber lining free of grit so it does not scratch your tablet screen.

Do pilots still use a kneeboard with an iPad?

Yes. Even with electronic flight bag apps, a kneeboard keeps your iPad secure, readable, and within reach while leaving your hands free to fly. From students to airline crews, a leg-mounted folio stops the tablet from sliding around and gives you a steady place to write notes, which is why iPad kneeboards remain standard pilot gear.
