It fits everything I need without being any larger than necessary. I really like the water bottle sleeve and dedicated headset pocket, two must haves when I was shopping for a new bag. My one complaint is there are no dedicated pen slots anywhere on the bag! I rectified this by adding a couple large gear mods and throwing my pens in there but I still think having no pen slots to be a design oversight. Gear mods are perfect for my charging cables and extra batteries etc. As a professional pilot I like the all black look of this bag. I probably would have ordered the crosswind bag instead if it was available in the same colour scheme.

Durability5 / 5Reliability5 / 5Performance5 / 5Ease Of Use5 / 5Value5 / 5Would You Recommend?YesAwesome bag, quality, compact and good lookingI have used this bag in training for about 3 weeks now. Pockets are super easy to open and it feels like quality workmanship. The only downside is that I would like the main pocket to be a tad larger but that is more of a personal preference.- Was this review helpful? Yes (0) No (0)

Durability5 / 5Reliability5 / 5Performance4 / 5Ease Of Use5 / 5Value4 / 5Would You Recommend?YesGood bag, but not perfectThe bad has room for all my tech and headset as well as my large iPad Pro. I only wish it had more compartments to segregate things better. Maybe a way to keep the cord of my headset from tangling. The bag is an overall winner, but it leaves out some details, possibly for more money, that would make it a perfect bag.- Was this review helpful? Yes (0) No (0)

Durability5 / 5Reliability5 / 5Performance5 / 5Ease Of Use5 / 5Value4 / 5Would You Recommend?YesThis flight bag is fantastic for a student or private pilot during training. Holds everything I need for my training and is very durable. If you are looking for a over the shoulder bag, this is a great starter bag. I wish it was a bit wider so it didn’t hold everything so snug but I suppose that is a benefit so things don’t slide around- Was this review helpful? Yes (0) No (0)

Durability5 / 5Reliability5 / 5Performance5 / 5Ease Of Use4 / 5Value5 / 5Would You Recommend?YesIt works great.Perfect for my flying needs. The only improvement that I would like to see is I wish it had two zippers on the hand held radio compartment. So that it could be zipped on each side of the antenna.
I liked it so well I bought on for my girlfriend.- Was this review helpful? Yes (0) No (0)

Durability4 / 5Reliability4 / 5Performance5 / 5Ease Of Use5 / 5Value5 / 5Would You Recommend?YesVery pleased with the design utilityI wanted the older Flight Gear Navigator bag but couldn't find it. The new HP line has styling I don't like, but this bag retains the all-black I wanted and also meets all my flight bag needs. If only it were made of a more "TravelPro" type of fabric, it would be almost perfect. The only minus I have is the handle; I don't like the Velcro wrap-around handle and would greatly prefer a two-handles bag, or a snap-together handle, as more convenient and quiet than the Velcro ripping siund and hassle. This bag holds all my first officer EFB needs, complete with headset, EFB, additional iPad and laptop, a book, logbook, chargers and cables, water bottle, flashlight, sunglasses and second pair of Rx glasses, passport, and the obligatory folding umbrella and Tylenol/sudafed bottles we all carry. Anything else goes in the lunch cooler anyway, right? I just hope it lasts....- Was this review helpful? Yes (0) No (0)
