I usually use mine to build forts with. The other day the Captain and I did a full re-creation of the Alamo with pterodactyls in the flight deck with US High Enroute charts. It was fun. We also made hats and a broach... got some weird looks from pax when they deplaned.

I used them to make a wall map of the southwest for flight planing.

We should give them to the FO's at GreatLakes... I hear they have to share with the captain. After they are dangerously expired (2-3 years) they can use them TP, cooking heat, kleenex, blanket, umbrella, food... really any of the luxuries we all take for granted that they can't afford.

I use mine to beat homeless people. A stack of five or six enroute charts will leave a pretty nice welt if you hit the hobo in the same place a few times.

I can't help but laugh at this

. Maybe it's because I just had a 15.8 hour duty day, but for what ever reason I find it funny... thanks for the laugh!

Used charts

Hi, I am currently a freshmen in high school. I love to fly the Boeing 767-300ER on Flight Simulator, but the price of new charts is outrageous. I was wondering if anyone has some expired charts that they could sell to me. I am in great need of charts for O'hare intl. airport. I am also looking for any used enroute(HI) charts. I would be happy with any charts. I prefer jeppesen, but naco will do.

Thanks
