I created a simple paper VFR flight planner and like to keep it on my kneeboard for VFR flights. I think of it like a checklist of things to research and write down before any flight, and a scratchpad to write things down during the flight.

The big area on the right side is to draw a picture of the destination airport’s runways and their traffic pattern direction, and the boxes are for frequencies, times, and weather reports. I use it like this:

Thank you. I am just preparing for my first flight in my training. I am 58 years old and just finding the time to get this done.
