I have the Summit. It fits, I was surprised at how big the bag is. That being said I only use two bags to carry everything which is nice.

This thread is all wrong.

What you need for a 4-day:

Six-pack of Trojans (For The Larger Man)

2 bottles Grey Goose

Smartphone with local bail bond offices on speed dial

A ferret

That is all.

A six pack? But what if it's a four day?

They're all I fly! But for those I leave the second bottle of Grey Goose behind. No sense dragging extra weight around...

Usually the FAs carry extras 😉

3. If you release your shoulder harness just after TO and there is an emergency you probably won't remember your shoulder harness. I had a buddy killed ferrying an airplane. The engine failed and he made a great engine out landing to a field... but forgot his shoulder harness. Killed when his head hit the dash.
4. There have been several cases of windshields shattering and pilots being partially sucked out, most recently a Sichuan Airlines Airbus in May.
But again, that's my personal preference and I understand why pilots don't.
If your airline still uses these they may not help anyway. Several countries have already required an AD to replace; but the FAA has ignored the issue since first discovered in 1992. Which are on your plane?
