My suggestion: Purchase a new PIM. [From Essco, or maybe even from
your local FBO/Flight_school.] Replace all the pages in your POH with
the same pages from the PIM, where they are identical. This should
leave you with only a few pages - the cover pages, the change page, and
the added pages (W&B changes). Any of those that are falling apart,
either photocopy or laminate. Keep all the original pages you removed
in a drawer at home, just in case you ever get some anal examiner.

What does that mean? Photocopies are *not* as good as the originals?
What if you get nailed on a ramp check? If the copies aren't sufficient,
having the originals at home isn't going to help, is it?

(I'd like to replace the decomposing pages of my POH with copies.)
