What essentials do you always have on board?

What things do you consider it essential to always have on board for
every flight? Not just things required by law, but things that you
personally believe in having on the aircraft before you leave the
ground.

Me. I never leave the ground without me. A chart and wrist watch usually go
along for the ride too. But if it's someplace I've been to recently, the
chart probably won't get opened.

I hear tell that them there GPS things are handy, but I've never flown with
one.

See Canada laws on required equipment for flights in

don't like handguns] and have a very extensive list.

By law I have to have a ticket to board. Otherwise I like to take a small
carry-on with reading material and essential toiletries.
