Top Tips On Buying Pilot Supplies

Is it your first time to take the pilot's seat and fly your own plane? If so, make sure that you buy the following supplies to ensure your safety during the flight.

Pilot Supplies You Need to Buy

Bags - There are several types of bags that you may need depending on the duration of the flight. A headset bag is a must to protect your headset from damage when not in use. Buy a heavy duty flight case to keep important flight documents, charts, and maps safe in any situation. If you've got a laptop with you, make sure you place it in an appropriate case. As for the rest of your things, choose a flight bag that has dual-styled handles (shoulder and hand straps), the right size, and made of durable weatherproof material.

Fuel Testers and Gauges - This is one of the most important pilot supplies to purchase. Fuel testers and gauges let you know if something's wrong with your fuel. When shopping for fuel testers and gauges, it's best to buy more than one. Besides the usual tester and gauge, consider buying a fuel testing cup and one with a screwdriver as well so you can easily unscrew the lock for testing.

Light It Up - A pilot must always be prepared to face the worst case scenario, and that's crashing. But he must always be optimistic as well, by thinking he'll survive the crash. When he does, having light is important. When shopping for supplies, always look for dual purpose items that give you light such as 2-in-1 flashlight pens. Buy a flashlight set that's specifically made for pilots as well. And don't forget to have a handy supply of light sticks!

Kneeboards - When shopping for kneeboards, you'll usually need - and have space - only for one so make sure you choose wisely. Your kneeboard must contain information regarding all 24-hour time zones, flight plan sequences, tower light signals, and other important flight information. Make sure it's the appropriate size and will fit snugly in your cockpit and made from durable material like aluminum.

Flight Plotters - Buy a couple of these to ensure that you've accurately mapped out your flight and that you can use it for all types of measurements. Buy a foldable flight plotter as well if you're lacking in space.

Safety Supplies - Lastly, pilot supplies should always include things you can use to give you additional safety or protection like a carbon monoxide detector, life vest, a medical kit, and a voltage meter among other things.

Have fun flying!

I recently saw something strange; A B757 was on short final, and the co-pilot was the "pilot-flying"..........

......... When the main gears touched down, the captain did turn on the reverse thrust. So, why does the captain make that?

A similar case: The co-pilot is flying the aircraft, but few secondes before touch-down, they go around, and not the co-pilot, but the pilot, gave thrust to go-around. Why is that?
I always thought that the pilot-flying makes these kind of things?

First off, think of it this way: Pilot flying and Pilot monitoring not Captain and First Officer. Most multi-crewed cockpits view flying this way. Both pilots trade off responsibilities on different "legs" of flying. One flys while the other monitors and works the radio. Still the senior pilot, the Captain, has overriding authority on any decision that is made.
In regards to the first part of your question, it doesn't make sense that the Captain who was not flying would engage the reverse thrust. The reverse thrust levers are forward of the thrust levers so it is hard to imagine that the pilot monitoring would stick his hands up there to possibly interfere with the pilot flying. There might be a company that does something different but generally Boeing pilots operate the same way. Frankly, I can't answer that question.
A "go-around" can be called for by either pilot flying or monitoring. Occassionally, the pilot monitoring may see something that the pilot flying does not and he may call for a "go-around." If the pilot flying does not respond to the "go-around" call then the pilot monitoring needs to take over the controls. Safety of flight is a call made by either pilot not just the Captain. Believe or not Captains do make mistakes as well but that is why there are two pilots in the cockpit. Hope that helps.
