Flight Bag

[Turbine]

What flight bag do you use? I currently have a rolling case with the dividers inside and such, i was looking into getting something similar with the section in the back for a little packing.

Maybe like this

I like Samsonite, what do you think?

I've seen a lot of pilots use those, or at least it looks like that. You can't go wrong with Samsonite.

I use a backpack I bought on the internet for $29.99.

I think that helmet bag that military guys use is the best thing. Just throw it in and cram it somewhere. None of that stuff stays organized anyway after a while. Just don't wear a flight suit when you fly, and you can get away with it without any Maverick comments.

I use the headset bag I got free from AOPA, pilotmall sells a similar one. Holds a headset, flashlight, gps, pens, small notebook and one sector's worth of charts. I.e., a typical CFI bag

I've also got a more traditional chart case, but only take it when, you know, I anticipate breaking my back hauling around a lot of charts.

That's the first thing I thought of. Sorry for being off topic I have a Sportys bag, but I don't use it. I just bring my plates, charts, headsets and flashlight with me.

I use a Gleim one that came with my private pilot books 7 years ago. Still use it.

I've been using one of these for about 3yrs. I'm happy with it so far. Plenty of room for charts and even a separate compartment that i keep my logbook and flashlight in.

I still use my USN helmet bag.

Holds everything I need.

I maybe went through 12 or so flight bags before I found one I liked the most.

This is what I have stuck with since they came out:

I love it, holds all my stuff, plates charts, my Zulu, etc etc!

Hi Guys,

I use the red bag I got with my Cessna Private Pilot kit from 1987, similar to this.

I don't let the other NWA/DAL guys give me a hard time about it. It fits next to the seat in the 757 just fine.

I use one from Coyote Works. Prior that I had similar one from Office Depot but it was made out of Ballistic nylon and it lasted me 10 years.

I have a Brightline Bag for all of the essentials. Then I have a Bose flight bag that I got for free with my headset for all of my books.

Would you like hair gel and an iPod with that?

Minus the skid strip.

My bag takes a beating so I had to go for the skid plates. Plus we don't have jet bridges and the skid plate feet keep the bag out of most of the wet mess...

I've had it for about a year now and love it. It should be the last bag I ever buy.

I've had mine for a little over a year and a half. It's taken a pretty good lickin but doesn't show much. The new gig doesn't require one so I guess I'll just collect dust.

I second the AOPA Bag comment...fits my headset, light, kneeboard, wallet, medical, pens, gum, a snack or two. Charts and all else are electronic, and I have an electronic backup on my Garmin Brick...err, 696.
