Default A New Hire Looking for Advice on Pubs Bags

Apologize for the less-than-cool subject matter . . . I am a new hire and looking for advice on what to buy for bags since my last job didn't require me to pack and travel with pubs or a uniform.

First, what do you folks recommend to buy for the pubs bag? I saw some that looked cheap and others built like a tank but much more expensive. Some had nylon siding, etc. What is your advice for a new guy looking to get something reliable, convenient (i.e. with wheels) and practical? Company names or models would be especially welcome.

Second, I am assigned to a 73 and want to know the correct size/type of luggage for the jet. I have used Travelpro in the past as a passenger but have heard several other names recommended. As well, some have pushed a 22" bag but it didn't have a garment section for the coat, etc. Is a 26" bag too large (I'd hate to buy it and find out it doesn't fit in the cockpit)?

All help would be appreciated -- thanks --
