Exactly is right... don't overstuff the bag.

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.

Great! Thanks for the info. Lets hope I can get ORD now and I'll be living the dream!

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?

He's talking about a CDO high speed.

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 😉

1. I just got used to it in the military and flying aerobatics.

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?
