Quick question for NJ pilots

[vmcdemo]

Hi everyone,

A quick question: just wanted to know a good pilot bag, say laptop like, that will hold a laptop, FOM, receipts and such, that will fit in say a CE-560XL. My previous bag is a little on the large size and I just wanted to hear the general consensus and find a good place to start looking for a replacement.

Thanks everyone

Sam's club has some really nice bags.

With a gift card a few months ago, I bought one of these:

Awfully expensive, and I probably wouldn't have done it without the gift card, but it holds everything I need (including the FOM and Bose QC2 Headset in its case), is easy to carry, and still fits under the seat on the airliners. (That last part was very important to me, and thus limited its size.)

Just about any laptop case will fit in the Excel's aft closet, so that shouldn't be much of a concern.

Good stuff and not too spendy.

This is the one I had and a good deal.

I use the small samsonite computer sleeve that came with the computer roller bag I used in the past.

I got an EEEPC and no longer need one of those huge second bags. ASUS Eee PC - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.

You can fit this PC in with your FOM and QC2's. The PC by itself iteself would fit in a DVD player case.

Having been at NJA for 9 years, I know all about making sure that the bags we use everyday have to be sturdy and rugged. NetJets has a store inside the operations building called Charlies Locker. They have flight bags that are very roomy and really tough for $50!

I bought mine a long time ago and it has worked great. Even after my FOs throw it around when I'm not looking!

I will second that, they just got a new model of computer/flight bags in at charlie's locker. Works great it is made by luggage works, so its good quality I believe the newer one is about $65 still not bad for a man purse:nuts:

Don't call it a 'Man Purse'....

Think of it as an 'Adventure Sack' instead!
