Default Keefe's Sectional Atlases

I have used the Topo Atlas for long trips several times, and find that
they are great for
that purpose. For more local flying (in-state or adjoining states) I
prefer Sectionals.
You encounter problems with either type when your position comes to the
edge of the
map. The only solution to that problem would be to have a seamless map
in an electronic display (like a tablet PC). The rub is that you don't
really have time to mess
with the controls of a PC and fly the plane, too. Besides which there
is no good place
to put it in the cockpit (unless it resides in the copilot's lap).
