I have this bag

Fits what I need and looks great when in meetings.

*I don't carry my headset since they stay in the planes. It could fit one but would be a very tight fit.

So I start ground school for a 135 op pretty soon flying a Caravan and all I have right now is my B6 flight bag. My only concern is that my bag is just about full with a kneeboard, Ipad, headset and logbook with some other small miscellaneous stuff. If I have to carry anything more than a checklist or something small I'm out of room. Any help is greatly appreciated!

Lose the logbook and kneeboard and that should leave more room.

I just bought one of these. It holds way more than you'd think a 25L backpack would hold.

Leave the logbook and the knee-board home....

Shouldn't the ck list already be inside the aircraft by regulation?

I fly a mix of C206, C208 and DHC6 135/121....all I carry is a pair of leather gloves (mostly to handle cargo), a flashlight, a PLB, a VFR map of the region I fly in (In the Caravan it works well as sun shade also) and plates of the closest alternate to my own base...everything fits in a small telex headset bag.

Ok, Leave the logbook and kneeboard at home..Gotcha!

I wanted a Tom Bihn, but they don't make a laptop sleeve to fit my 17". Is it awesome?

Very much so! I was hesitant to spend so much money on a backpack, but so far it has been very worth it.

It's pretty rad.

Aaannd Amazon Prime bites me again . . . I can't say no to that deal. I needed a new bag anyway. No, really, I did.

I keep a camera, 2 lenses, my computer, sometimes an iPad, headset, tons of snacks, glasses, flashlight...everything. Very durable.

I keep trying new bag ideas, but alway come back to the Swiss Zinc bag. Perfect...for my needs. Not a lot of pockets to hunt thru in the dark. Pockets on all 4 sides. Large enough to pack lots, but small enough to place on floor between my legs, in the cockpit.
