If the mount goes on the chart holder, where do you write down your clearances?
I can't pinpoint a good spot now to leave scratch paper for taxi clearances, route amendments, holding instructions etc.

You're supposed to bring your kneeboard.

Seriously? There are tons of places....scratch pad, rams horn clip, center console...etc....

What are guys typically using for a kneeboard? I've been wanting to get my Sporty's Flightgear kneeboard out again... Also, how well will the crew meal tray fit on said kneeboard?

I have the sporty's trifold kneeboard. I bought it when I started flying in my 135 gig. A Delta captain on the 777 told me that was pretty much the standard in the 121 world. I would recommend it. The side pockets are useful for stowing extra VFR sectionals.

I have never once seen a 121 guy with a kneeboard

You haven't been flying with the cool people then :-D

7 years of flying 121 and I've NEVER seen a pilot use a kneeboard. Feel free if you want to, I'd expect some funny looks though

^this^
Never enough things to make fun of your coworkers about!

Personally, I've gone the way of a padded dinner tray. I'm able to spread out my enroute charts and still eat a full crew meal on it. All while keeping the top of my thighs comfortable.
