If we manned up and acted like a cohesive union, we could wear clown noses and propellers on our head and still get an industry leading contract.

I don't. Backpacks are a convenient way to carry them, and certainly more concealed than the standard-issue bag. I'd be happy if EVERY backpack had an FFDO weapon, so I'm not going to criticize ANY pilot who carries one.

I see your point. Except, 1) it’s fairly standard across the profession to carry a backpack, thus it can be considered professional. 2) I’m all about function. At 5a.m. walking down icy metal stairs after a long night I don’t need to be carrying my suitcase in one hand and my leather bound briefcase in another. 3) my guess is you are either a management type, strive to be a management type, or at one time was at the grade of O5 or O6 (on active duty).

Swiss Gear Synergy is a company-issue option at UPS; it has a top grab strap that fits around our issued Travelpro handles so it rides well if you don't want to carry it on your shoulder for some reason.
I've seen a few folks use tactical-type sling packs like the 5.11 Moab 10, but that's a bit minimalist in size for my preference.
