Whirligear - It's Official!


Well, it's official... Whirligear products are now available through web-based pilot stores, like MyPilotStore.com!

If I didn't mention it before, I decided to fill a large hole in the aviation product market. There is no way to mount your flight timer to your kneeboard. Well, there is if you like to use a wooden ruler, duct tape and cardboard. I kind of think that a method of like that is rather ghetto... so I made a product (patent pending, BTW), that will securely mount your timer to your kneeboard.

Nice, eh?

I'm doing this under a new company I created called, In Ground Effect, LLC. The product is branded under the Whirligear name. I'm pretty psyched about it. It's not a major money making venture or anything, but it is pretty cool - I think.

Take a look, and hell, pick up one while you are at it.

  • Industrial strength Velcro Dual Lock for secure and repositionable mount.
