What is the MyGoFlight Compact Bolted?

The Compact Bolted is a premium piece of aviation equipment from MyGoFlight — the industry-recognised leader in cockpit mounting systems, pilot kneeboards, anti-glare screen protectors and flight accessories. Sitting in the Bolted category and priced at $139.00, it is trusted by pilots from student aviators through to airline and business jet professionals worldwide.

Designed and shipped from Denver, Colorado, every MyGoFlight product is engineered to the highest aviation standards using aircraft-grade aluminium and stainless steel, and is shock-certified to 20g for use in any cockpit environment.

Who it’s for: The Compact Bolted suits aircraft owners who want a permanent, panel-mounted iPad or tablet position — especially in jets and panels that already have AMPS bracket holes. If you fly rentals or would rather not drill, a clamp or suction base is a better fit (see related mounts below).

Frequently asked questions

How does the Compact Bolted attach?

It bolts down using a standard AMPS 30mm × 38mm pattern — to existing AMPS holes (common in jets) or a flat panel. Installation is permanent but tool-light, and the device holder still detaches without tools.

Does the Compact Bolted include a device holder?

No — device holders are sold separately. The Compact Bolted is the Sport-system base; pair it with the MyGoFlight holder for your iPad, tablet or phone. Check holders at the MyGoFlight store.

Can I adjust the viewing angle?

Yes — up to 15° of tilt and full 360° rotation, so you can set portrait or landscape and angle the screen into your scan.

Yes — Skyfarer readers save 10% automatically via our MyGoFlight partner link.
