What do to with old en-route charts?

I love this one. He looks like he's saying "now look here, Dad,
if you go VOR direct here instead of by the airway you'll shave
30 miles off the trip."

Don't overlook old approach plates. Crumple 'em up, fill up a large
box or a wading pool, and let 'em rip -- literally!

Cheers,

PS and don't forget that actually old enroutes are useful for
student pilots and VFR pilots

Now that I will have to try! I have thousands of old plates piled up in a
cupboard. The only thing I use 'em for at the moment is starting fires -- if
you crumple them up, they're pretty good for getting BBQ's going.
