Also, can anyone recommend which flight case works the best? I found several listing 8.5 - 9.0'' wide but the handout talks about ones with a pocket on the side have touble fitting. And almost all of them have a pocket on the side. Any info would be appreciated.
On the -200, the 22 inch works fine (I've seen the 26 inch used, but it's a little more work). I have the extra pockets on the front and as long as you don't overstuff, you'll be fine. First thing you learn on OE is how to stuff that thing in the bin!
For flight case, the Luggageworks vinyl fits perfectly, even with the side pockets. I can fit three 2-inch binders, headset, CFM, and a 1 inch trip binder in perfectly. According to someone at a few store, Luggageworks are phasing the vinyl one out soon. It's far cheaper than the leather ones.
