I wonder what I am saving in fuel?

When navigating you are looking a a picture centered on your position. Looking up a section of a multi page scaned doc on a 7inch screen in flight would be hard work. I have been "ramp checked" twise in Europe in the last 20 years, both were none events as I had all the right bits of paper.

Rod, though that wasnt what I thought you were talking about (which is what made me laugh when I read it!!) we should all know what to do if intercepted anyway, without the need to look it up....and it should be obvious what they want you to do by the intercepting heli's/jet's actions...
