Got it, thanks.

They only had 4 Yelp reviews, and they were all negative.

You can drop it off a cliff and there's a good chance the plastic frame won't break. It's that really tough reinforced plastic that actually has a little flexibility to it. The bag is about $100 less than the metal frame too. I also upgraded the handle to the steel handle for $30 at the Crew Outfitters store. Took 5 minutes to swap. I was tired of the flimsy aluminum handle.

Talk to pilots, it has a good rep, or at least has for a long time. Always possible they might suddenly throw quality out the window to save a few bucks recently.

Competitors can (and often do) post negative reviews.

From reading the 4 reviews on Yelp, it appeared they were all pilots.

Well if you throw it around like you UPS guys do to the packages, and it survives, it has to be a tough bag.

People seldom go on the internet to say how great things are - if you graded every airline based off of this forum they would all be dumpster fires. Accept Compass and Southwest maybe.

Anyone have shirts from https://www.custompilotshirts.com/? The "moisture wicking collar" on the home page looks like a great feature.

No one mentioned the Skybus uniforms. Anybody have an old picture of those awesome things?

No. Nothing fits in those bins.
