I usually have several flashlights, cell phone (I just landed in a
cornfield...come get me), serrated knife, and some sort of jacket. I'll
probably be adding a basic first aid kit, signalling mirror, and I'm
considering gloves (one poster in another ng said that he doesn't fly
w/o gloves and a knife after he crashed and had to cut and pry his way
out of a hot smoldering a/c--which burned and sliced up his hands). Any
other suggestions?

cheers,
victoria
