Flight Outfitters Lift XL Flight Bag Review

This bag is large enough to hold everything you need without being bulky. The first zip pocket has inside pockets to keep things organized and easy to find. Each of the zippered pockets is lined with felt to protect your GPS, iPad, headphones, etc. from damage. For this I use it with a margin. Outside pockets: knee pads, divided into two. First zip pocket: logbook, chargers, backup SD cards, gum/snacks, tissues. Center zip pocket: Garmin 796 GPS, spare iPad. Third zip pocket: Bose A20…

I've been training to fly with a backpack and a Bose headphone case. It was an awkward combination, so I looked for something more compact. I like the Pro bag because it's a bit more understated. The bag itself is well padded and finished.

But I understand they used that material for the velcro dividers that came with it, but I didn't use the…

I've had the little lift bag for a few years now and love it. It was too crowded as I added a lot of things I felt important so I was very excited when I heard about the new large Lift XL and XL Pro bags which are based on the Lift bag. I have had the opportunity to use the Lift XL Pro in a Cessna A185F that I fly for work and in my own Maule MX-7-180. Pros: I really like the Lift XL Pro bag. It does an excellent job of neatly organizing my headset, cables, iPad and mount, flight log…
