Default Best Kit Bag for an EFB Flight Deck

Just curious now that most of us don't carry kit bags anymore what bags are you using as a second bag that you have liked and which ones either didn't work as well as planned or didn't hold up long enough as hoped for? I have seen many options from the stealth travel "duffle" style to guys who use the flight attendant bag and some that have cooler styles. I am looking for one that has space for a telex headset and tablet with room for a few snacks for those long flights when there are no food options. Thanks for any suggestions.

Second vote for the aerocoast. It's an excellent cooler and EFB combo bag.

I'm using this for the last couple of months. I can carry a a couple of days of work clothes, my EFB and a MacBook Pro, Bose A20 headset....
My only complaint: It has so many storage compartments that I can't remember where I packed things.

I used this at my last job with my iPad, Macbook Pro 13", headset and mount and it all fit, plus room for more. Now minus the headset and mount it still is a great flight bag and holds a lot. Fits under the seat if you're commuting/traveling in back also. The metal hook on back makes it easy to carry with the j hook on my luggage works roller. I've seen guys with small flight bags but personally I like being able to hold more stuff. I've been using since March and its been holding up like new.

Seconded.

Had mine almost 2 years and still looks new. Have 2 ipads, QRH, and various other small items. Works good. Lasts long time.

I second this. I have one also and it's great. Comes with straps so you can either use it as a backpack or an over the shoulder type bag. I spent the extra 10 bucks for the Luggage Works clips so I can clip it right to my bag. Works awesome and keeps everything balanced.

They actually made it look like a backpack.... On purpose?

God.....

Did they at least throw in a skateboard and some Beats headphones? What about blinky wheels for your rollaboard.

Call me old-fashioned, but damn. We are supposed to be airline pilots. We ain't catching the bus to middle damn school.
