Tried what he did a few years ago. Since then we have been adding LIDOs. Don't get it. I think he photo shopped that pic.

Mine looks the exact same with a mag light also in a corner. Everything fits but it's tight.

I put mine in 4 Jepp binders, might seem like overkill but I don't like them super bulging. The problem with the black binders they give you is they are too long or wide depending on your terminology. The black ones are like an inch longer than jepps so they don't fit two wide in your case. If you use the jepps you can put two chart binders and a cfm or fom per side, and once you're off OE you can take your fom out and have spare space. It's tight but they fit that way. The lidos fit in three binders if you try. Two? Sounds crazy to me.

At my airline, that is a nogo, non MELable item

I have 2 Jepp binders and the smaller office depot binder for hub cities. I can fit those 3 plus CFM and FOM with a flashlight and Telex 850 as well as a small LIDO revision tightly in my Scott bag.:D

I didn't like the company issued plastic binders for several reasons, couldnt fit them into bag, they are slick and ended up dropping them all the time and I didn't like slicing my fingers on the sharp edges.:cool:

When can I pick up my Ipad? ;)

Really? come on. I'm trying to help the guy out, why would I photoshop that? I've been having the same set up ever since we switch from Jepps to Lidos
