How do you print out & preserve all the Checklists, groundcharts etc ?

[Weasel]

Hi all

 

I thought it's may interesting and also helpful to know for all newbis (and also for many others like me ;)) how do you print out and preserve all the checklists, ground charts and all other information which you can find in this forum.

 

The last time I worked with checklists was at the beginning with Falcon 4 AF but not in a professional way and just at the beginning.

 

In this Forum here you can find a lot of great and also helpful checklists and ground charts. The hard work of all the people who were involved in creating these lists and charts has "deserved" to print them out.

 

I think one of the best (and also practical) format would be the A5 and collect them in a A5 ring file.

 

Cheers

Aaaaaaaaaaaaand what if you don't have an ipad? :P

I print them out onto A4 paper then insert them into those plastic inserts and finally into a ring binder. It's getting rather full now.

Checklists, airfield charts etc I print on A5 paper, double sided then laminate and bind with book rings. Any parts of VFW publications I need printed I just print on regular A4, anything else just sits on the PC/iPhone.

 

Of course, I need to get myself an iPad sometime soon. :D

Things I use often (checklists, reference material) I have printed out and keep in a binder. Other items I call up as needed on my Thinkpad. I also have a DCS app for Android that gives me quick access to ground charts.

 

In addition, I have a 9-Line card and Mission Data card printed on card stock and inserted in a plastic sleeve. I use china marker or dry erase to fill them in as needed.

I probably have 100 sheets of laminated checklists, key combo lists, airport maps and varous charts. It's rather overwhelming.

 

Just got iWarthog for my iPod Touch and it's great! Waiting for something like that for the iPad before getting one.

I never realized how convenient having all your PDFs on an iPad would be until I got one.

 

I've spent more time on the shitter reading manuals again than in a long time (just like the good 'ol days of Falcon's paper manuals). :D

3 ring binder with dividers for each section: maps, checklists, etc.

Spend 99$ and get a second 20 inch 1600x900 monitor. Hook it to your GPU second port. Change you game out of 'full screen' mode, enable autopilot, or pause, and browse/read your documents from you second monitor. Easy and cheap and no printing/reprinting/lamination costs.

Same here as Mr Fish does :)

 

Though I have a little problem with that because every time i actually click on the second monitor (ie. scrolling down a pdf) some switches in the plane move to the opposite direction as they are switched on the hotas (TM Warthog). The only way to avoid this is to pause the game before clicking on the other monitor. AFAIK I am the only one suffering this problem.

 

Anyway, a second monitor is really handy for all the additional stuff.
