Wairworthy Ascend Flight Bag for Pilots - Fits All Aviation and Travel Gear Including iPad, Kneeboard, Headset and Valuables

I needed something to hold all my stuff plus extra room for things like a hat, gloves, windbreaker, water bottle, etc. this fits perfectly under the seat of a 172 or in the back seat of a Cherokee. Plenty of room for two headsets. Nalgene. Radio. Garmin ADSB receiver. Garmin inreach. Flashlight. iPad mini in big case. Battery pack. Extra batteries. Glasses. Leatherman. Plane documents / POH. Puffy jacket. Beanie. Gloves. Really an astounding bag that’s well laid out and plenty of pockets and places to keep things organized and not bouncing around. Rugged material and a comfortable shoulder strap. (FYI it ships IN the bag, not loose in the box).

I’ve been using a regular backpack for all my flight gear, and it was always a mess—everything crammed together with no organization. This flight bag has been a game-changer. It has a spot for everything I need, like my headset, logbook, and kneeboard, and it keeps everything organized and easy to grab. The bag feels super durable, fits everything without being too bulky, and is clearly made with pilots in mind. If you’re tired of digging through a cluttered bag for your gear, this is the perfect solution.

After researching for the perfect bag, I can definitely say this is the best one, it fits everything you need without making it too bulky great value for the money. Great quality definitely a life changer

Nice and just the right size

This bag is an amazing flight bag. I’ve been using it for a year now and I have a few words to say to any pilot/student who wants this bag. First off, amazing quality. Very durable very well made. This bag also has and INSANE amount of space. It’s also pretty big for a flight bag, but it’s perfect. These are the pros I have. Now for the cons, I don’t have many negatives for this bag but I still have a few nit picks and I really wish this bag had the following. This bag does NOT have any dedicated pockets for pens/pencils. I hate this especially since I don’t want my pens/pencils stabbing into the mesh pockets and tearing holes. So be aware. Another negative I have is NOT having a dedicated iPad pocket for easy access on the outside. Everytime I have to take my iPad out especially my iPad mini, I have to dig all the way into the center pocket and get it from the very bottom. Since the middle pocket is In the middle it kinda gets frustrating. Another con I realized is that once you put your headset in your bag, the headset pushes against and puts pressure on your papers/checklist/iPads that you place in the center pocket. This goes into hand with the previous statement regarding digging for my iPad. I really wish this bag had a outside easy access pocket for iPads/checklists. Another thing I believe is also a con about this bag is that their is ZERO outside pen/pencil holders. Besides all of the above, this bag is very versatile. Shoot there’s so much space you can 100% fit a sandwich in there for lunch for long XC flights! Insanely great bang for your buck flight bag! I’d 100% recommend to any student/pilot who’s looking for a more compact/smaller bag for everyday use!

It is bigger than what I expected, but then, I never checked the dimensions. It is pretty good quality and all my stuff fits very well. It is a bit bulky for a shoulder bag, especially when doing pre flight checks or just riding on the bike, but then it also fits well in the back of the plane. Great quality 👌🏻

I recently purchased this bag as an Air Force student pilot flying the T-6A. It's larger than anticipated and the organization is generally well thought out, however, there are some minor improvements which could be made: The sunglass pocket could be larger (I wear RayBan Justins and they are difficult to remove without smudging the lenses), an exterior pen sleeve (or two) would be massively helpful, and an open exterior pocket on either side of the bag would be MUCH appreciated. Having the ability to slide my EFB/iPad in and out of a bag's exterior makes life much easier, and is why I generally use a FlyBoys pubs bag in lieu of this bag. That said, I absolutely LOVE that this bag has two water bottle holders, as I come to work with both water and coffee on most days. My larger 12.9 inch iPad Pro fits securely in the center of the bag, and there is plenty of room for lunch, headphones, a kneeboard, and more. If I bring this bag to work, I don't need a backpack or separate lunchbox: I can carry everything I need in one hand, leaving my other hand free to put on my hat and salute (two very common occurrences for a new pilot). The bag DOES fit in the baggage compartment of the T-6 without issue, but it's a bit too large to be placed in the cockpit with me. If Wairworthy made a smaller, more compressible version of this bag that retained its dual water bottle pockets and added exterior pen and iPad/EFB sleeves, it would be a must-buy for those of us in cramped cockpits. Extra points if they add a place for Velcro patches to adhere to!

The bag is made well but the strap sucks. The material of the shoulder piece makes it slide off. I had to buy and replace it with an “anti-slip” one. Wish it had pen slots and a Velcro strap for my headset.

Absolutely great. A+

It was indicated in the description that I can fit in a 14inch laptop. However, I tried but the laptop stick out slightly beyond the bag and I am unable to zip it close.

Great bag. Fits all of my gear including headset, iPad, knee board, extra batteries, flight calculators and plotter. Can also tuck my coffee mug or water bottle in the side pocket. 10/10 recommend.
