Personal and flight bags for crew rotations

Crew bags split by how long the crew member is away. For the daily commute to a base, the EMG Equipment Backpack 29 L has three foam-padded zip compartments, a laptop pocket and twelve organiser pockets — a place for the headset, the tablet and the paperwork rather than one cavity for all of it.

For a multi-day rotation, volume and wheels matter more than organisation: the Trolley Bag 54 L and the Large Trolley Bag (70 × 46 × 38 cm) both run on heavy-duty wheels with a telescopic handle, and the Equipment Backpack 80 L is the top-loading option for kit that has to be carried rather than rolled.

Tarpaulin is the material for kit that gets dropped on a wet deck. The Water-Repellent Backpack 48 L has a padded back, waist straps and an A4 front pocket; the Convertible Equipment Bag 54 L is heavy-duty tarpaulin that converts from holdall to backpack, with a 100 kg-rated zip and dog hooks.

Crews flying over water carry one more bag: the Survival Suit Bag 42 L holds an immersion suit and folds down small enough to live in the suit's own pocket when the suit is being worn. Which suit goes in it is a separate decision, covered under survival and immersion suits.

None of the bags above is the right place for a flight helmet. It needs to sit upright with nothing pressing on the visor or the comms, which is what a round, single-compartment helmet bag is for — and it is ready to ship today. Logo print is available across the whole range; through Organisation Solutions an operator standardises the bag set once and crew order their own from then on.
