Keep your iPad clean and protected

By Janice Wood · July 10, 2011 ·

Pilots and iPads form a terrific partnership, and now Sporty’s offers a microfiber cloth to clean iPads — with the added bonus of important aviation information.

“iPads have become the must-have accessory for pilots,” says Sporty’s Vice President John Zimmerman. “We developed this cloth for all our iPad-toting pilots so they can keep their iPads clean.”

The screen cleaner is perfectly sized to fit your iPad screen. Key information such as VFR altitudes, flight plan format, airspace information and more is printed on the front and won’t wear off.

Microfiber wipes fingerprints off the iPad screen with no chemicals, and is reusable and hand-washable. Simply leave this cloth on the iPad screen when you close the cover to keep it clean and protected.

Measuring 7-1/8″ by 9-1/2″, the Pilot’s iPad Cleaning Cloth [#6517A] is available for $6.95 at Sportys.com or at 800.SPORTYS.
