2 F301 for me. We keep the hotel pens in the aircraft. (Corporate) I have had the same 2 F301 for last several years.

Oh man, I sure don't want to be around when you finally lose that one! Not a question of If, but when!

Ok, Ok, I'll come clean. I roll with a $1,200 Montblanc Meisterstuck. I was in Geneva checking on some of my accounts and to spend a few days skiing at Le Grand Bornand and a week in Chamonix. Strolling along the Rue Terreauz-du Temple by the St-Gervais Chantepoulet and I spied it in a window and couldn’t resist.

But it’s not a hotel pen or a shiny silver one, but a hand-crafted 18 K hand-ground gold nib with platinum inlay, three gold-plated rings, gold-plated clip and deep black precious resin barrel. It's nice. I like it.

It writes so agreeably when I'm deferring an autopilot or gen though.
