The Ultimate Kneeboard® is the ultimate pilot’s accessory

It comes in two styles to suit your needs: the Fixed Ring and Loose Ring styles both have their own respective advantages. The Ultimate Kneeboard® keeps everything you need at your fingertips. Finally, you can find everything you need without fumbling or searching! The In-Flight Guide supplement contains five pages of valuable information for both the VFR and IFR pilot. iPad Holder now available!

And after a lengthy period of abuse, I'm satisfied that the rigid ring binder is not going to pull loose from the Kneeboard. Even my two young sons have not been able to tear this thing up.

We tried the Ultimate with both types of instrument approach plates and can report that it is much more successful marriage with the Jeppesen product. Simply pick the plates you want in front of your and snap them into the binder. They stay put and in order, no matter how turbulent the flight.

This ingeniously designed Ultimate Kneeboard is truly the best we've ever seen, combining all the features a well-organized pilot would ever want. Jepp users won't find another kneeboard that features the Ultimate's exclusive 7-ring binder. The velcro-tipped clear strap is the perfect solution for holding NOS books in place, too.

Designed to accompany the Ultimate Kneeboard, the Ultimate In-Flight Guide is five color-coded pages of valuble VFR and IFR information "Jepp-punched" to fit perfectly in the kneeboard. You can remove each page from its clear vinyl sleeve and write your own notes on the blank back side.

I was in Reese's 87-01 class. When I was in T-38's, I came across the kneeboard in the top picture in the base exchange. The pencil holder and approach plate strap were superior to what the Air Force was issuing. Later I bought the loose ring version and later still, when I thought I was going to get back into GA flying, I bought the fixed ring version but 9/11 put a hold on those plans. Now I have access to a C-172 and two teenage boys interested in flying so I thought I should enter the 21st century with an iPad mini and Foreflight. I thought it serendipitous to see Harper Aviation could still fill my kneepad needs after all these years.

I ordinarily do not respond to survey questions but I am making an exception. I have been flying for 20 years and I am on my 3rd Harper kneeboard. This is the best testimonial I can give.

This is a must have for pilots. When I first started flying, I tried lots of different information management methods from clipboards to aluminum kneeboards and clamshell cases. I eventually bought the Ultimate Kneeboard over twenty years ago. It is VERY durable, flexible, compact and easy to use. It has seen me through my Instrument Rating and four coast to coast cross countries among hundreds of other flying adventures. I have put well over a thousand hours and 20 years and the kneeboard still looks and operates great. It is perfect for keeping critical information, kneeboard charts, checklists and a notepad quickly at hand. Would highly recommend.

I had struggled to find a kneeboard that actually fit my leg and had the versatility I was looking for (as a smaller framed female). When I found this kneeboard, I reached out to the company regarding my concern and they worked with me personally to ensure the strap fit my leg securely. They were incredibly easy to work with and the dedication they show to ensure customer satisfaction is unmatched. The kneeboard fits me perfectly and also came with helpful inserts that I use very regularly on my flights. I would recommend this brand to any of my aviation friends, and will continue to purchase from this company in the future.

We are maintenance, not pilots. We operate vintage aircraft where cockpit space is very limited. We use you kneeboards to run our checklists. They work very well.
