By General Aviation News Staff · March 17, 2013 ·

Sporty’s has introduced three styles of kneeboard for the iPad Mini, designed to hold the Mini right where you need it in-flight.

A pen/stylus holder with an included notepad rounds out the features of this kneeboard which measures 9”w x 8”l x 2”h when closed.

Your iPad Mini will stay securely attached to your leg, and the rotating mechanism makes it easy to switch between landscape and portrait views. This kneeboard comes with a zippered storage pouch for cords or an iPad GPS.
