Flight bags
My husband has recently landed a job with a major airline and I'm wanting to buy him a new flight bag for xmas. He currently has a hard-sided bag on wheels with an extendible handle. I think he's happy with the style, but it is in pretty rough shape and needs to be replaced. I have no idea as to what is out there, what airline pilots typically use, good/sturdy brands, the best place to get a pilot bag, etc. Any suggestions??

Scott Leather has a GREAT lineup of flight bags, although I'm not sure if they have the exact style you're looking for. I've owned three of their bags over the years and they're the best in the biz!

I have two styles of flight bags, one I take with me on trips (it attaches to my roll-aboard bag) and one I use for training which has wheels so I don't have to carry it. Sounds like that's the kind he now has. If it's in a bad shape like you said replace it with something like this...
