*'Radio': This needs to be suitable and adequate (2m 5W VFH handheld transceiver). You need to make sure it is working properly and of decent quality with ability to hear easily and talk easily in-flight. Please test this out on the ground

AND in-flight BEFORE you come on the trip, to make sure it works properly.

Highly Recommended:

The following things are not 'compulsory' but highly recommended...

??? Global Positioning System (GPS)

??? Sun hat & plenty of suntan lotion!

Whilst we do highly recommended having a GPS for all cross country flying, as they are very useful things indeed (in general, not just for this trip), but it is not absolutely essential that you have one for this trip. If you do have a GPS, make sure you know how to use it before you come on the trip - don't wait to learn how to use it during the trip!

Also Recommended:

The following things are also recommended to help you enjoy the trip as much as possible...

??? Drinks system
??? Shorts, Sandals and Sunnies! B^)

Please note that the above is not meant to be an 'exhaustive' comprehensive list!
There may be other things that you need also for this trip. The above is only meant as a guide to help you.
