Excellent flight bag

  • By Juan from Dayton OH USA on Wednesday, November 9, 2011
  • Pros: Amount of pockets, quality, practicabilty.
  • Cons: None
  • Review: Being a student pilot I look for something practical with many pockets and strong enough to be taken everywhere. This flight bag is all of that plus it looks elegant enough to be a work briefcase.

Not Just for Pilots!

  • By Ira from Honolulu, HI on Monday, August 25, 2008
  • Pros: strudy, rugged, and priced right
  • Cons: I wish it had a pen holder or two on the outside
  • Review: I carry my ASA Flight Briefcase every day, and I've never even had a flying lesson! I call it my "man-purse". It is manly enough that I can get away with that with my coworkers and buddies. It holds my work files, reading material, bank bag, security badges, pens/pencils, iPod, phone, and keys. If I could just get it to hold my coffee, I could carry everything I need in one hand!

Loved it, wore it out!

  • By JillNC from Charlotte, NC on Saturday, December 27, 2008
  • Pros: Great value and size
  • Cons: Needs better seaming, reinforcement.
  • Review: I know the price is right and it is the PERFECT size bag for short flights but I already ripped it apart where my laptop goes in and out. I will buy another one! It is good for the purpose intended.

Fine Briefcase

  • By A Customer from Elma WA USA on Thursday, January 9, 2025
  • Pros: The strap is handy because it frees my hands to hold other things.
  • Cons:
  • Review: It works for what I need.
    It takes a little extra effort to reach the inside pocket because I have to unsnap the snap of the outside and zip the extra zipper on the inside but id does protect the contents.
    It would be nice if it had a storage to place 8 1/2 X 11 pieces of paper without wrinkling them.

love it

  • By James from Redmond WA USA on Monday, July 8, 2013
  • Pros: light, easy to carry as a briefcase, durable.
  • Cons: No padded sections for eletronics,
  • Review: This is an outstanding briefcase it is able to carry all my flight maps and flight computers etc. The down side is there is no padded section for my Ipad which is the new flight map. It can actually do flight following with the GPS system.

    Anyway, the bag for its size and price just simply cannot be beat. I have never had any of the d-rings break nor have I had a failure or anykind. I have never had any problem with any component of the bag other than accidently slicing it with a razor knife, I am very happy with the bag.

    If there was anything I could change, I would have a padded section for laptops, or my Ipad or any eletronics to store safely. I own two of these flight bags, but purchased a third as a gift for another fellow pilot. I should also say that I am a RC helicopter pilot, and I can fit spare batteries, rotor blades, as well as extra parts. Love the bag for the price, it is made of quality parts, and is very durable

    Sincerely,
    James Young
    Commercial Float Plane Pilot in Alaska.

Great bag

  • By Pilot girlfriend from Cave Creek AZ USA on Friday, August 5, 2016
  • Pros: Spacious, mature looking
  • Cons: Strap seems not super strong
  • Review: I got this for my boyfriend in flight school, it fits all his text books for school and his headset, clipboard, etc for flying. I worry that the strap might break after repeatedly carrying heavy things but so far it seems to work well. He likes it and says it works great! If you're looking for a decent quality beginner type bag without spending a fortune, this is a good product.

It's one of the better things I've spent my money on.

  • By Jerry from Fort Smith AR USA on Thursday, August 21, 2014
  • Pros: it expands to provide enogh room to carry almost anything.
  • Cons: plastic clips on shoulder strap instead of metal
  • Review: I'm very satisfied and happy with the product, the only thing I wish was different was the shoulder strap clips are plastic, I would feel better if they were metal. I carry a significant amounts of books I use while teaching ground classes, so the weight worries me occasionally. other than that I would encourage someone to buy one.

Nice Bag

  • By Bob from Sherman, TX on Friday, May 30, 2008
  • Pros: Light and not bulky
  • Cons: Fabric below the main zipper ripped
  • Review: I've used this bag for a couple of years and really like it. I use it to carry my charts and plates for the fight I'm going to fly. It's easy to handle while flying and doesn't take up much room. It's not designed to carry headsets or large items. Even though the fabric below the zipper has ripped, I will buy this product again.

Nice size for local/regional flying!

  • By A Customer from HI USA on Friday, September 19, 2008
  • Pros: Design, pockets, expandable zipper.
  • Cons: Fabric is too light-duty.
  • Review: Exactly the size and features I was looking for to fly interisland in Hawaii. If you're going transcon or transoceanic, too small!

Practical and Elegant

  • By Juan from Dayton OH USA on Tuesday, May 27, 2008
  • Pros: Spacious and very useful.
  • Cons: Not enough space for a headset to fit well, and the material doesn't seem as strong as I thought it was going to be.
  • Review: This product completely met my expectations; it has enough pockets for charts, checklists, a fuel tester and pencils, even my digital camera. It's easy to carry and looks good anytime. Perfect for student pilots or for short flights.

Like the bag - workmanship is marginal

  • By Flyboy - Cessna 206 from Lancaster, PA USA on Thursday, August 7, 2008
  • Pros: lightweight, handy pockets,
  • Cons: typical low-priced workmanship - get what you pay for
  • Review: The bag does what I wanted it to do but I've only had the bag for a couple months now and already there is a row of double stitching on the outside pocket that holds the zipper in place and half of the one row has unraveled already. It looks like I might be taking up sewing to ensure the bag stays together. Not a big deal but certainly annoying. Other than that it has replaced my briefcase adequately.

  • By A Customer from Whitestone NY USA on Friday, June 24, 2016
  • Pros: cheap price
  • Cons: handles
  • Review: Considering that it's only worth 24$, not bad.
    But if you want a good bag --- This is not it.
    The handles are horrible, actually making the contents feel heavier then they are.
    The bag itself only has one main compartment, making being organized difficult.

"handle sucks"

  • By Myle from Columbus OH USA on Friday, August 6, 2010
  • Pros: Briefcase form, nice stylish
  • Cons: Plastic clips to hold up the bag, not strong
  • Review: I bought this for my dad for fathers day and when I received it, both he an I loved it. My dad was worried about the strap and sure enough it broke as soon as he put his books in it. Note, the books were not heavy at all. So I would not recommend this product unless the strap is securely connected to the bag. One good thing is at least it is also a briefcase so now he just carries it around at way.

You can find better

  • By Doug T. from Chicago, Il. on Monday, August 15, 2011
  • Pros: holds a lot
  • Cons: cheaply made
  • Review: Another cheap piece of junk made in China. The plastic attach points for the shoulder strap on the bag are stitched weak and the stitching gave out very quickly.
