Default flight bags

Looking to see if anyone knows of a good place on-line or not, that sells flight bags for a good price. I'm not looking to pay $250 or more for something that just holds charts and manuels.

My advice? Spend the money on a good kit that will last forever. I think there is a newer company that sells top grain leather kits with metal "skid plates" and reinforcement strips. Don't know the name, but one of the other folks on here could probably tell you the name.

Or you can go buy a $60 faux leather kit every 1-2 years or so when it falls apart...

Those look like some quality bags. I may just have to pick one up.

I'd like to line my flightbag with a plush velvet or something. Nice and soft.

$33 shipped. Not bad. They generally hold up quite awhile. Much better than those cheapo fake leather/cardboard things from office max. I've got a friend who's had his for 2 years, still going strong. I got unlucky with mine.
