Product Reviews and Recommendations (Pilot Supplies)
Buying Guides
Our goal at Executive Flyers is to provide the most thorough and unbiased information, so our readers can make the right choice when it comes to products.
Whether it is an aviation headset, aviation handheld radio, pilot logbook, kneeboard or one of the many other pieces of equipment that pilots use and depend on, it can be hard to make the right choice when there are so many options out there.
This is why we have done the hard work for you, relying on extensive research, testing, and experience to ensure that only the best products are recommended.
Our buying guides also include comparison tables, so you can compare all the important specs and features of a product without having to spend time researching this information yourself.
How Products are Rated
Many pilots have different requirements. This is why we recommend products that fulfill different criteria and purposes.
For an aviation headset, a student pilot will have different requirements (and certainly budget constraints) to a commercial pilot.
Aviation radios come with navigation and just comm options, with pilots often having a preference for the former or latter.
Even when it comes to something as simple as a logbook, some pilots will prefer one with hundreds of pages, while others just want something with 50 pages.
This is all taken into account when recommending products.
Occasionally, if you click on one of the links within an article, we may receive a small commission if you go ahead and purchase something. However, we never let this influence our recommendations or receive any other form of compensation for our recommendations.
Reviews
Some products require a lot more analysis than others.
An aviation headset, for example, requires more in-depth research than a logbook.
This is why you will find individual reviews of several of the products we recommend where we go into more detail.
We look more closely at the features and specifications of a product.
