Perfect for Instructor use by Ian from Edina MN USA
Pros: Easy access with multiple pockets Review: Well suited for the more minimal needs of instructors. Plenty of pockets and comfortable to carry. Was the perfect solution for my daughter who is CFI & CFII and not wanting to haul around "all" her normal baggage when instructing.

Great little bag!!! by John Murphy from Los Angeles, CA
Pros: Small in size. Carries just the items you need. Perfect for airplane owner or short trips. Cons: Can be too small for some pilots. Review: When I began flying, I started out with a Jeppesen captains bag where I could carry everything including the kitchen sink. I would bring along headsets for me and passenger, books, charts, kneeboard, food, FAR/AIM, etc. Now that I own my own plane, most things like headsets, kneeboards, etc. stay in the plane, and this is a great bag for someone in a similar situation. I am able to carry only the things that get updated/charged and it works perfectly. It holds my logbook, charts/plates, AFD, portable radio, and is light and easy to carry around from home to plane.

Excellent Short Flight Bag by Michael from Tampa FL USA
Pros: Price and Functionality Cons: Short strap and velcro. Needs to be snaps. Review: This bag holds my headset, charts, knee board, sun glasses, flashlight, pens and paper. Also extra space for insurance cards, phone and flight computer in the front compartment. Good padding in the bag which provides protection for your gear. Comfortable shoulder strap which is easily adjustable, although the strap is a little short for those over 6 feet tall.

Solid Product by ICC from MA USA
Review: I really like how it looks. It carries comfortably even when stuffed full of student books. Has room for everything you need. Only thing I would like is to have a better spot to put my fuel tester than somewhere loose in the front or main pocket of my bag. GREAT bag though. Definitely recommended

Minimum Equipment by A Customer from Al Ain, UAE

Great little bag by A Customer from San Jose CA USA
Pros: Compact, but just the right size. Cons: If only it was a little bit wider Review: If you are just a 2-3hr flight and back to home base flyer, this is the bag for you. 1 headset, kneeboard, sunglass case, and a rag is all that I can carry in the main case. The side area holds 2-3 charts, E6B, and small stuff like flashlight and spare batteries.

Good basic flight bag by Lou from Saint Augustine FL USA
Pros: Good value for the price. Review: This is a nice basic flight bag. Good value for the price. Pretty much serves my needs. On a long cross country you may consider a more robust bag. For simple local flights and short trips this is ideal.

Two pairs of gloves, hat, flashlight, and watch all in the large center pocket. The rest of the bag fits plenty of knick knacks.

Good size for jump in and go flying, so-so construction by A Customer from Hillsboro OR USA
Pros: Good size Cons: Manufacturing needs extra QA Review: I like the size of the bag. For me, compact is always better (especially flying in a 150). Plenty enough room for headset and other small gear in the main compartment. Probably enough room for FAR/AIM too. Rear side pouch is good for carrying your log. Pocket and key lanyard in the fold out "deck" area is good. Things don't come out of it when flying in rough weather which is nice. While not the first "purpose built" bag I've ever bought... I've seen better. Mine could have used a bit better workmanship. The velcro on the handle started to tear away from the stitching after flight #2. I notice the quick release straps across the fold out deck are stitched on somewhat crooked making it difficult to strap together when I have a more bulky items in it. It does an OK job for my purpose.

good by A Customer from Hockley TX USA
Review: Just the right size for my student flights.
Friday, January 21, 2011
by William from New Bern NC USA
Review: I've used the small flight bag for two months now and have found it perfect in every way. The transceiver pocket is just right for my Sporty's A200 plus an extra battery pack. The large interior easily accommodates two David Clark headsets, gloves, GATS cup, and Snickers bar. The outer pockets are adequate for logbook, charts, and AFD.
My only suggestion would be a clear pocket on top which can be detached and used to hold a chart, flight plan, clearances, or approach plate. A Velcro strap could be attachable so it could double as a knee board.

the product is smaller than I thought by Saul from Caracas- Venezuela
Review: Is of good quality and it is appropriate for now to my need.
Tuesday, January 04, 2011
by Jerry from Fremont OH USA
Review: The bag is well constructed and has many pockets to store things you need. However I wish I had paid more attention to the size. Is like anything else you never have enough space. Since I got a new head set I have to carry another bag to accomadate everthing. Overhaul good product.

Great bag for the working CFI by FlyinBrian from Holtsville NY USA
Pros: Small size makes its perfect for short hops when you only need the essentials. Cons: None Review: This bag is super strong. Looks good. Doesn't have a plethora of useless pouches and pockets. I like the construction and its relatively small size. It works perfect for me as a CFI to throw my headset, a pair of foggles, some essential charts, along with lunch and a beverage!

Perfect by A Customer from Georgia
Pros: Small, quality construction, perfect for small planes Cons: Just a little too short in length, needs a place just to clip stuff too Review: Needed a small bag for flying Diamonds and this one is just about perfect. The only thing I would change is to make it about 1 inch longer to fit my plotter in better.

Nice and compact by Carol from New River AZ USA
Pros: compact. very handy. Cons: plotter doesn't fit without bending Review: Nice compact flight bag to tuck under the seat of an R22 helicopter. It fits all the necessary stuff for a short cross country or day flight.

Perfect size by Greg from Scottsdale AZ USA
Pros: Priced well and manufactured well Cons: None Review: Nice size flight bag not to small not to big. Everything works good on the bag and it fits all my student books and instruments nicely. I don't have a headset yet but imagine you would need to carry that seperately.

Perfect for light sport flying by Russ from Colorado
Pros: Great for light sport flying, price Cons: Be cool to see one in leather Review: Was flying 172's with larger bag then started flying light sport. This bag is perfect for holding everything a common pilot would want to carry on a day or weekend trip. Fits out of the way in the light sports when flying two people or just toss on right seat when solo and it stays put.

Just Great by Bill from Atascadero CA USA
Pros: Versitility Cons: None. But description is not exactly accurate in my opinion. Review: My only issue with this Flight Bag is that my ASA CP-R Plotter does not fit inside. It is about 1" too long to fit inside without bending. The adjustable pocket on the outside will hold all sorts of items. Radio, Glasses Case, Travel Mug. Although it would be better if the strap over the top was removable. It can get in the way of larger items. The zip-up fold-out clipped side pocket (CoPilot) does not fit together perfectly, but clips are there to hold it all together. The description says it will hold 4 sectionals (two in each of two pocket). Good luck getting two in there, as the sectionals are just longer than the pocket (which can get in the way of the zipper), and putting two in one pocket is quite a thickness stretch. Plenty of room inside the large compartment for Headset, Books, Kneeboard. A zipper on each side for a wide opening. The AA or AAA elastic battery storage as described in the description are useless. But they work well for pen holders. External pocket is not for kneeboard as described, but works well for holding papers especially when folded in half. Would be nice if the mesh pocket had a zipper or snap or velcro to keep it closed. As is, there is not way to optionally secure items inside. Key fob should be inside main pocket, not in the CoPilot fold out area. It does, however reach to the mesh pocket, so that helps with the loose strap. The shoulder strap has a curved section to contour your shoulder as well having a bit of a nonslip texture. I would recommend this bag for anyone looking for a smaller bag or one for students.

Good student flight bag by Christoffer from Titusville FL USA
Pros: Compact with plenty of compartments Cons: Build quaility could have been better, but certainly not the worst Review: I'm gonna do make this a short review: Its is a very good bag if you are a student pilot. I house my headset, gloves, kneeboard, sunglasses and pens. With a little room to spare. Not the worlds best build quality, but if you dont mess around with it, it will last you your student time. Good product.

Great little flight bag. by David from Paragould AR USA
Pros: Light , well built , roomy. Cons: I would like it better if it were an inch or so longer. Review: This flight bag is very light and sturdy and roomy for just enough for needed equipment such as E6-B flight computer, plotter, charts, pens, calculator and yes my reading glasses, certainly a must if you are looking for a medium size flight bag then look no further.

Spacious inside and out. by Derrick from Palm Bay FL USA
Pros: It is exactly as advertised, and the shoulder strap doesnt hurt. Cons: It doesn't cure the common cold. Review: The bag is as advertised, plenty of room for a light day's worth of gear, holds your headset and some sectionals and a POH with room to spare for assorted other tools and items of need. Oh, and the price is quite nice too, I'm happy with it.

I would NOT recommend this to anyone by James from Ft. Lauderdale, FL
Pros: Looks nice, very compact. Cons: Falls apart easily. Review: This would be a great bag if it did not fall apart. Within a month of having it, one of the zippers came unattached, so only one side would zip up. It says it has "self healing zippers", but they definitely did not heal themselves. Also, one of the handles came unstitched, so now when I carry it I look like a poor man, (what pilots not though, lol). So overall it looks great when it's new, but it just was not made with durability in mind. [Editor Note: We are very sorry to hear about the problems with your bag. This is unusual for the Sky High Bag. The manufacturer does have a "No Questions Asked 1 Year Warranty" on all of their bags and will be happy to replace it for you. Just give them a call at 801.390.5501.]

Pros: compact size Cons: headphones get crammed into same compartment as rest of gear Review: Decent "day bag" - needs a separate compartment for headphones.

Perfect size for me by Mark from Manchester, NH
Pros: Small size, rugged construction Cons: Needs a better flashlight pocket Review: I fly a PC-12, and this bag fits perfectly underneath my seat, and holds everything I need to survive 14 hour days. I can fit my Lightspeed Zulu case, a clif bar or two, a small clipboard, spare batteries, Mini-Maglight, and a few other odds and ends. The only change I'd like to see is a pocket for the Mini-Maglight that is a little more secure.

Review: Fits my needs for me at this time.

by Fitz from Marietta, GA
Review: Great bag perfect for everyday use. Little small but it fits a set of headsets in tightly. Keeps all my things, has a very good spot for your log book and pens and pins. Also a Flashlight case very good. But all in all it has enough space to go on a day flight.
Monday, January 14, 2008
LOVE this bag by Allen from Smyrna, TN
Pros: Lots of pockets, just the right size Cons: Needs a dedicated fuel tester/maglite sleeve Review: When I first received the bag I thought it was too small but as I began cramming what I needed into it, it turned out to be the perfect size. I can keep sectionals, approach plates, a handheld GPS, A/FD, fuel tester, kneeboard, pens, pencils, flashlights, handheld radio, E6B (both manual and electronic), utility knife, and spare batteries. I would describe this as the perfect bag for CFIs. Honestly might be too small for those who intend to carry books.

Perfect for a Super, I Mean, Student Pilot by Kristen Soliz from Texas State Technical College, Waco
Pros: Spacious enough for all materials a student pilot needs. Cons: A little lacking in the interior's length. Review: It's not as large as the Discovery Flight Bag, but big enough to fit in all the things a fledgling pilot would be carrying around: Charts, a log book, pair of headsets, a knee board, one of those paper e6bs and a smaller plotter, pens, pencils, flashlight, and the airplane's PIH for the model of aircraft one's flying. As a SP talking to other SPs, I would recommend this definitely over one of those really expensive leather Jeppessen bags, or even one of their less expensive synthetic material flight bags.

Very good buy by Donald from College Station TX USA
Review: [Black] Does exactly what was needed. Recommend it.

Great bag for a leisurely flight by LSA Chris from Longmont CO USA
Pros: Small enough to be convenient, large enough to hold the basics Cons: If you insist on bringing your FAR/AIM book, plan on carrying it seperately Review: Being a student pilot, I didn't want to haul around a captain's bag every time I went to fly. This bag is great for holding all the basics, however I just received my new FAR/AIM book and it will not fit inside. Flying Light Sport Aircraft, it's just small enough to fit in the "baggage compartments" behind the seat, but big enough to hold my headset, charts and tranceiver (if I had one!) along with pens flashlights etc…

Fair value, met my use by Larry from Titusville, PA
Pros: Nice size and protective bag Cons: Side pocket a little excessive and not user friendly Review: Nice little bag for carrying essentials for a sole flight so that you don't have a lot of extraneous material in the way - especially on an IFR flight. Has a extra pocket that is a little hard to utilize the way it folds out, but I still like the size
Monday, April 09, 2007
I would NOT by this bag if you are looking for durability by CFI in Charlotte from Charlotte, NC
Pros: Nice size for a CFI bag Cons: Poor quality. Won't hold up to daily usage. Review: My bag is less than 1 year old and one of the handle straps broke off. I have other bags older that 5 years old and still are holding up. I would not recommend purchasing this flight bag.
Editors note: We are sorry about the problem that you had with your bag. Please note that this would be covered under the manufacturer warranty and they will either repair or replace the bag at no cost. You can reach them at 801-390-5501.
Friday, March 09, 2007
by A Customer from Sacramento, CA
Pros: storage space, and organization Cons: velcro handles Review: This bag holds all the equipment I need. It fits my headset, AFDs, extra charts, log book, pens/pencils, fuel tester, flashlight, extra batteries, and maybe an e6b and plotter, but anything more would most likely not fit. I can tuck my knee board in the side pocket, but it makes the bag pretty tight. One thing I dislike, is the velcro on the handle, it makes it hard to get my headset out on a windy day when one hand is holding the door during preflight. But other than that, it is well made, durable, and nicely featured.

by A Customer from Colorado
Pros: Size and layout are great Cons: Low quality zippers Review: Great CFI bag or for short day hops. Layout and size are perfect. Only drawback is the zippers are finicky and easily get off track if not closed with great care.
