Default Another thought

This may or may not be a good idea for the check ride.

I print full page copies (AOPA member) of only the approach plates I need for a trip, but make sure I have 100% coverage within easy reach. I think it's good real world practice, but I can see the DPE saying, hey - destination just closed let's go to podunk regional and shoot the DME/Backcourse LDA to the field and watch with amusement as you try to rearrange and get set up.

The reasoning here is to de-clutter your workspace, but be able to get to all of the charts/plates/maps easily just in case. Less fumbling thru reams of paper and less chance of using the wrong approach plate.

YMMV
