the vast majority of pilots have a seperate case for their laptops. just easier & safer to keep it seperate from the 35lbs of manuals we carry, and the rollaboard that's stuffed with clothes for the 4-day

that and it lets you keep your laptop with you in the cockpit instead of back with everyone elses stuff.

I find it harder and harder to bring the laptop with an iPhone handy, the thing is awesome.

Anyone know anywhere in ATL to get free internet. I was there for 6 hours yesterday and couldn't get connected without paying. Makes for a very long sit .

I have the PNT bag with the laptop pouch and LOVE IT. One less bag to drag through security and impossible to find if you don't know where to look so your laptop is safe if you leave your bag in the crew room to grab food. I've forgotten to take it out at security and watched it baffle TSA for a few minutes while they dig through my dirty underwear before they figure out where it is. Kinda fun to play the "warmer, colder" game with the TSA goon

Laptop, ipod, PSP, I took it all. Nothing like playing some video games to get your mind of things.
