Premium Pilot Flight Bag - Aviation Bag (Navy Blue)

I have had this bag a few months now and I love it. It will hold plenty of gear. It is pleasantly convenient to access while flying. However, I am OCD so what I carry doesn’t include my headsets. I carry those in the case they came in.This bag carries my:iPad mini ( can be full size ) (main compartment separate padded pouch)Log book ( main compartment)Knee board ( main compartment)Checklist ( main compartment)Sectional ( main compartment)Ipad yoke mount ( headset compartment)Suction cup IPhone cradle ( headset compartment)Stratus 3 suction cup cradle ( head set compartment)Status 3 ( large outside pocket)Hand held radio (large water bottle pocket)Fuel tester ( small outside pocket)screwdriver (same pocket as fuel tester)Flashlight ( second small outside pocket)Fuel quantity reader ( back outside pocket)Pens/pencils ( center organizer)Power cords ( center organizer)Headlamp ( center organizer)Devise charger ( center organizer)Puke bags ( center organizer)Small first aid kit ( center organizer)Leather man ( center organizer)Spare batteries ( center organizer)Everything has its place and is easy to get to.I’m guessing most pilots do not obsess quite like me so if you are sane, you could carry your headsets in the headset pocket. I have Lightspeed Delta Zulu’s and although they fit, I feel my headsets are better protected in the hard case they came with rather than the headset compartment on this bag ( or any other bag, which is why I am not faulting the bag, it’s definitely me). I use the headset pocket for other things.

I bought this to replace a rectangular shaped bag which proved to be cumbersome to carry. The shape of this bag is just right and is easy to slip into the aircrafts back seat. The yellow interior makes the contents easy to find. I like the color and the material but my one concern is the zippers. I wish they were heavier duty but no problems so far. The bag is also easy to carry with the included strap. It has a sleeve in the back for attaching to a rolling suitcase handle but it has a zipper on the bottom which allows it to be used as a pocket. My plates and checklist fit right in there. I included a photo of all the contents.

First impression only...haven't flown with it yet. Likes: Zippers are slick, very easy to zip/unzip. Well thought out pockets/storage. Quality feels adequate. Interior color makes items easy to locate. Good value. Purchased because it is large enough to store what I want, but small enough to fit under-seat and still have room for legs. Drawbacks: The rear storage pocket is either/or...meaning if you use it for storage, you can't slip it over your roll-away handle. Couldn't find it in black.

Bought this for my Private pilot training. Snug fit, but holds my Lightspeed headphones with the case in the front pocket. Able to hold my glasses, extra power banks, cables, wallet, keys, phone, ipad mini, and Logbook either in the slim pockets, or the bigger pocket in the back. Really like how the interior is yellow, so finding things in the bag is super easy. Side pockets house my 16oz yeti and my flashlight. Can easily fit a radio in the elastic side pocket.Improvement items: Have the waterbottle pocket include some elastic straps to hold taller waterbottles in place. (I just use a clip to keep it held down).

Description of product accurate

I gave this to my son who is going to school to become a commercial pilot. He said it was a great bag to bring on the plane. It fit all of his gear nicely but was not too big. He said it gave him nice access to all of his items quickly.

My prior bag was a large Sporty's pilot bag from the '90s. But now an iPad has replaced all my charts, E6B, etc. This bag holds what I need (iPad, headset, pens, glasses, etc.) in a much more compact form. And space is at a premium in a small plane! Well worth the "upgrade." I can't yet attest to it's durability, but it seems well-made.

Like the bag. Put all my flight gear in with no problem. Easy to pick up, easy to carry. And it's light weight. Opens and closes with ease. I like the separate component for the headset.
