Marc_B Posted May 27, 2024 Report Posted May 27, 2024 https://www.chinookmed.com/01374/home-vehicle-kit.html anyone looking for a decent small med kit should look at these. It has a tourniquet and quick clot, and is nicely packaged and pretty thorough for a basic kit. I keep one in the hat rack that I've augmented. Of course the things I've actually used from it are bandaids and Ibuprofen... I feel that everyone should know how to immediately perform CPR (compressions only now trained; no mouth contact), massive hemorrhage/tourniquet (with a prop swinging around us we should all know how to put on a tourniquet and have one), and take care of their basic boo-boos. Everything not attached to you would probably get lost in a fire or crash landing, but my reasoning is I can easily tell someone "go get the red bag from my hat rack" and they'll find it immediately. Otherwise similar to others. 2 quarts of oil, funnel, tire pressure gauge, leatherman multitool, compact ratcheting multi-bit screwdriver, gats, window cleaner, & clean microfiber cloth in ziplock. These are all in plastic tub so oil/window cleaner doesn't leak everywhere. Hat rack has med kit, extra headset and oxygen tubing for 3 seats in a small zipper pouch from Mountain High don't pull these out unless I need them loading up pax. Pilot oxygen tubing is in the pilot seat back pocket just in case wx or routing changes and I need O2. I also keep travel johns in flight bag as well as one in the pilot seat back pocket as well. On floor is folding towbar and chocks. Quote
Igor_U Posted May 27, 2024 Report Posted May 27, 2024 I see most of you keep (hard) things at the heat rack that could turn into projectiles at the crash landing. Aren't you concerned about that? I have only an old and soft pilot jacket at the heat shelf. Baggage compartment contrails my tool kit/parts bag, survival back pack with first aid kit, quart or two of oil, chocks, sleeping bag, tow bar, jumper cables, fuel stick etc... In a past I had even few parts like voltage regulator which, of course meant it never failed. Quote
