What's in the Pilot bag?
VloĆŸit
- Äas pĆidĂĄn 17. 05. 2017
- Have you ever looked at a pilot, walking through the terminal, pulling that signature pilot bag?
In todays episode you will get to look inside that bag and see what is inside!
We will look at both what the pilots legally have to carry inside and what Mentour thinks is a good idea to have in there.
Enjoy!

I always thought that those bags had a sneaky parachute hidden in them ;)
Hahaha
Lolollol..!!!
The item I'm the most proud of, in my flightbag, is a ball inflating needle... I've saved the day many times by deflating the kids footballs that we can't accept on-board unless deflated... đ
That is so wholesome :)
I don't think pilots oversee the boarding of passengers
Depends on the size of the plane i think.
Probably not joking
The cabin may be pressurised, but its pressurised to specific altitude (such as 5000ft)
Meaning air pressure drops after takeoff- and any inflated/sealed item swell up. (take a packed of crisps with you next time you fly)
The last thing anyone wants to hear is the loud *BANG* when an over-inflated football bursts in the cabin.
Thats a really good idea, just few days ago we spent precious time trying to deflate a kid's ball with no succes, even the captain try, but we don't have a needle so we have to board it partially inflated
A better question is, what's in the *passenger's* bag? I worked part time for TSA a few years ago. One day I was running the x-ray machine when I saw a weird looking skeleton on x-ray. I called for a bag check and the officer found a live cat stuffed into a carry-on.
Well of COURSE it was in her purse! If it had been in the bag for the overhead compartment, the poor kitty wouldn't have survived the trip. Lemme guess, this was @ a United counter???

This is really interesting to me. I always thought the pilots were carrying a few changes of clothes/toiletries for overnight stays. I just assumed you'd be staying away from home in hotels. I didn't realize you needed to bring so many things with you to do your job. Thank you for sharing this!!
I would probably need a few additional things other than just a pair of undies and socks. hahah
Oh... might I add, the real reason for an extra pair of underwear is for those stressful days pilots have to deal with 50knot crosswinds and thunderstorms đ
Black Lines Matter What's the point of having an extra pair of underwear but not an extra pair of pants? You need both right?
Lol
Lol
haha nice

Idea for a video.
How do you deal with toxic behaviour in the cockpit ( by crew or fellow pilots or even other people in the airline) love your vids I've been watching since the beginning!
ÎΩÎÎÎÎÎŁ ÎÎÎÎĄÎÎŁ id like to see that :D
you have inspired me. i have learnt so much from you and i am on my way to becoming a pilot. i am only 14 though
Oh, wow. That's a great question.
Conflict resolution is difficult, because it relies on so many factors.
* Corporate culture
* The attitude of the person giving you grief
* Their place in the heirarchy
* The length of time you and they have been with the organisation
* Your attitude
* Others I haven't thought of
The first step should be to address the person you're working with, calmly. State your case unemotionally, it leaves the person you're working with room to respond unemotionally. If you start bringing anger, anxiety or defensiveness into it, you'll be seen as less professional. A great way to explain your feelings is with statements such as "When you ..... I feel .... " This makes the conversation about your reaction, and not blaming or accusing the person you're talking to.
If discussing the matter has no effect, you may want to broach it with HR. If they receive enough complaints about one staff member, they'll look into it, regardless of their rank or length of service or whose friend they are. A good HR dept will never tell the subject of a complaint who brought it against them unless you go into a resolution conference together.
So. Perhaps the corp culture is that newer employees (regardless of rank) are cannon fodder and you have to put up with a poor working relationship, perhaps on a regular basis. Maybe the management support is based on your rank. You should have a feel for where you fit and what sort of reception a complaint may get if you lodge one.
The person with whom you're having a problem may or may not be receptive to what you have to say. Pick your time. Don't do it when you're busy; your feelings just aren't that important. Focus, and get the job done first. Don't even try it if that person's having a bad day, just gotten divorced, etc. Trust me, they're having a worse day than you. Use the "When you ... I feel ... " statements. "When you talk to me like a child, I feel patronised." "When you shout, I feel anxious." "When you make sexist comments, I feel diminished as a person, despite my years of training and service"
No-one gets past childhood without having gome through conflict resolution processes at some stage or another. Think back to times when someone's been brilliant at getting you and someone else to talk things through, or when you've been able to confront someone about their behaviour.
Don't be intimidated. Everyone deserves a decent workplace.
Lastly, you're not going to get on with everyone you work with in your career. That's life. Put a brave face on, ignore them when you have to, be the bigger person and be professional. The view from the moral high ground is fantastic.

Don't know why, but watching/listening to this dude is like meditation. Keep up the good work!
100% agree
Wouldn't it be the greatest prank ever if we found out one day this guy isn't even a pilot?
Doktor McNasty he is
Not only that, but if you call the airline he works for with your (very legitimate) concerns, I'm sure they'll be more than happy to acknowledge he does...right before calling TSA...
Rule #1 in situations like these; Whenever working with, for, or around someone on a professional level, the first thing you should do, even before reviewing on-site safety protocols for whatever job you're doing, is always ASK for CREDENTIALS!
It's one of the first things I looked into when I started watching his channel. Plus, it's also kiiiinda hard to gain access to both the cockpit of a jumbo jet in service today & FAA approved flight sims if yer not...
yea, it would be a prank, great or not.. mmnn..
it like the Beatles never existed, the whole world does not know what, who Beatles is... (plot twist) except one guy..!!
that would be the greatest prank, won't it..??
đ±đł
Iâm. Sure doktor mcnasty is just having a laugh and he knows he is real , he said it for a laugh donât take things to serious
Rekuzan Rikudo you seriously need to get a life lol
I am not a pilot, however, I am in a occupation with many similarities. It is quiet obvious to me that you know your stuff. I appreciate the manner how you deliver your expertise. Very well done. Your company is fortunate to have you as a member of their team.
This is great thank you, even though i've only got a PPL and not pursuing an airline pilot job
What! Why?
@@sparshthakker6776 because an airline pilot position is a lot of work youâre not only flying yourself but hundreds of people per day
So letâs see how Kelsey would change this based on 747. Love to see another with you two.
I am such a nervous passenger, your videos of take off, landing and turbulence have done so much good for me.
I will still be terrified but some of the noises will be not so frightening.
This is just interesting, whenever I get on a plane it is super scary, but you have made it easier.
My family live about 4 hours flying time away, so, no choice!
Thank you x
I watch a lot of pilot videos but you are by far the safest in every aspect of aviation. Your number one priority is safety and that's great! You're extremely knowledgeable about your aircraft and others and that makes you a great pilot! Can't wait for more videos!
Forgot to get my Mentour 360 hat, lost my job promptly after the company found out.
lel
In addition I carry binoculars. They are very handy sometimes. For example to check the runway for birds before take off. And I have a cap for when I take off or land into the sun.
I remember during the 90âs that the pilots used to carry 2 bags. One like yours and the second one , which was heavy, containing all the Jeppesen charts. (Prior to the iPad revolution. It was a nightmare, especially the need to update them so often!
This video was random in my home list but I found it fascinating. Thanks for posting. I'm sure many new recruits find this very helpful.
When I was a pilot, I always carried two pairs of reading and sunglasses each, a copy of all my essential documents, medical records on a flash drive, and at least two pairs of underwear, Essential medications, toothbrush, flashlight, earplugs, headset, etc., all were put into plastic bags for protection. The use of EFBs was wonderful, and as a result, traditional, bulky, sectional map binders were no longer needed. Two sealed bottles of water and snacks were a good idea as well. Don't forget your car keys, wallet, passport, as well as your airman's and flight physical certificate.
Funny thing...I'm not a pilot but because my dad was an Air Force pilot when I was born, both my mom and I have paper WHO vaccine records. When I went to get my COVID shot, the lady at the (civilian) pharmacist was very surprised because she'd never seen it before. I hadn't realized until then that it was unusual to have that kind of shot record.
Also, you're very right about things not surviving pressure changes. Funny/irritating story...my bag got searched by TSA once and they did the chemical testing, forgot to shut my conditioner bottle (or didn't shut it tight enough) and when I got home I opened my bag to find a TSA "we searched your bag" card and a huge conditioner mess all over my clothes. Thanks for that. -_-
For GA pilots I've heard many recommend a portable airband radio also. Not as much of an issue when you have 3 radios though :)
Your intro always makes me happy! btw, Great vid!
yes it is amazing and uplifting
Thanks for the video. I'm a very new student pilot, actually just setting up my pilot bag now. I've got that same headset, and I'm honestly amazed by how good it is - so glad I spent the extra money up-front!
I loved the video! Makes 98% of reasonable sense to have any of the items in it. I'm still not a pilot but I sure want to be one(since as long as I am self aware) so this was quite the good learning experience. In my day to day backpack that I always carry with me I actually do have most of what you showed for the very same reasons you explained - common sense is to have always a good pair of backup glasses(in my case sun glasses, I never leave home without them), I keep a pincer board with me too to order my most needed documents(in my case all of my "big" car documents, and it also helps to have some good quality white paper to write on. PENS! This is what you got me sold on the video the moment you mentioned them! "Black ones, because they are good if you need to scan something after that" - I don't know how many times I had to explain myself to other people why most of my pens are black(and I have at least 2 pencils too) - scanning, copying, faxing - everything is so much better quality if it's done with a black pen or a very good quality pencil :)
Since I'm also into electronics I have just one tiny thing to mention, but it caught my eye and it's going to keep bugging me if I just stay silent about it: You put your iPad with your screen out, and you did it twice. This makes me feel that this is maybe an unconscious habit. This increases the chance of the screen braking. Yes you had some had objects behind the iPad from the other side of the bag, BUT - if you just arrange the board to have the pinch facing inwards, and the vest for example between the board and the "head phones" section - this will reduce even more the chance of an accidental damage - probably more than double.
Thank you for the awДsome video and continue making them. I'm watching most of them when I get some free time, and it really helps me prepare for what is to come :)
Oh wow, I thought that needing corrective lenses automatically prevented you from being an airline pilot. I'm glad that isn't the case (or it changed from when I was a kid).
It doesn't even prevent you from being a fighter pilot these days. Just needs to be correctable to 20/20.
Ground crew also need sun glasses for the bright sunny days. Between the sun, bright concrete and the shiny buildings, sunglasses are a good thing to have.
When i flew Cessna 150 the sunglasses certainly are an eye saver. At 8000 ft the sun is way brighter than on the ground. There's no comparison. Don't leave without them.
Thanks for the great podcast, I absolutely love watching your videos! I've got some questions, I hope they have not been answered yet. You mentioned you drink coffee, so do you make it before the flight in an airport or being on board? And if you make the coffee on board which water do you use? Is it the same water all the passengers are being served with or is it from some separate special water tank? The reason I'm asking that is because there're some stories on the internet suggesting that you should never drink the water served by the cabin crew because the water tanks are never being cleaned. Thanks again for the interesting videos!
Damn I always thought you guys were lugging around cocaine. This was surprising.
Mike K lol...good one
I was thinking maybe coke/heroin, or a portable blow up doll... but close... ha-ha
that would be the nick nacks he mentioned perhaps
haha
@@BillAnt why not... all 3????
You mean, they are _not_ filled with martini mixers and ice??
I am not even a pilot and I am loving this channel
@big volk im a pilot an R/c Pilot of aircrafts ,Helicopters and drones lol , and these videos are very interesting to watch , Thanks for the knowledge mentour pilot.
I've always wondered, now I know...thanks again!.....When I was a kid, I thought you had your Maps in there! LOL
I really enjoy your explanations, thank you for taking the time to do this.
LUGGAGE TIPS 1, 2, 3
Tie two or three colored ribbons of different lengths around the handle to your luggage to warn others that this is not their luggage. People grab luggage at the turnstile and take it home before you ever see it.
Anywhere you put your bag, it could be grabbed in error. Example: overhead compartment, unloaded from the bus, at the hotel lobby, at the turnstile...
Use 1â wide ribbons 14â long. Cut the ends at 45 degrees then seal the end with one drop of Super Glue to prevent fraying. If each ribbon is slightly a different length by 1/2â or so, they will all show up no matter how they drape.
Tie the 3 ribbons as a sandwich, as if they were one ribbon. Use a manâs tie, a half Windsor knot for the best look. After it is tied on, the total length of the ribbons will be about 6â from the handle. A longer ribbon shows up better. You can see it from 40 feet away. Perhaps tie TWO handles or RINGS top and side of the case. This way, it wonât slide around.
Put your phone number on one ribbon using a permanent Sharpie.
Example: âOwner 454-333-7878â
Choose one ribbon with an unusual pattern or fabric to really make it unique.
Stand by the output hole port of the turnstile to reduce the chance of someone else grabbing the piece.
Tie your skiies, duffel bag, and what ever with matching ribbons-even your computer case.
If you are a Travel Agent, you could hot gold stamp one ribbon with your name and phone number. Send them a set of ribbons, red and blue and BLACK to your customer as a gift. Record this gift in your database so you donât duplicate yourself.
Buy a gold hot embossing machine. Gold emboss your business name on the BLACK ribbon. Put the customerâs name on it if possible.
Pleasant color combinations:
Red and blue
Chartreuse and purple
Orange and light blue
Orange and yellow
Gray and pink
Green and yellow
Red and Green
Red and Gold
Light blue and light green
The third ribbon could be white, gray, black, tan
Tip #2 Take a cell phone picture of the ribbon tied on. Then another picture of the full luggage piece. You now have a way to communicate âwhat it looks likeâ.
Tip #3 Place a strip of colored duct tape on the inside lining to your case. Put your name and phone number on this tape. If all identity is stripped from your case, you have this to show. If someone steals it and rips off identity tags, you can show the police officer the inside tape..
always exciting when "new from mentour pilot" shows up in my notifications :)
Exciting. Exiting means you are leaving.
oh sorry. You know what I meant though and thats what matters most right? :)
Fischer Space Pens. $10-$30 and they work in extreme conditions that you'll never see in civilian aviation as well as upside down. Very good pens for the price.
Very nice video, I always enjoy your video's. I fly but only as a private pilot and was always curious what the commercial guys had in their bag.
All good stuff, I like it. Not going to be a pilot, I'm a retired aerospace design engineer.
I got my FAM flight in 5 days. So excited to start working towards my dream job.

I have that same coffee tumblr, though mine is the 787 one. Got it at the Boeing Everett factory.
You literally have to either be a robot, or like data from Star Trek TNG to do this job... and to possibly remember everything!!!
The most important thing is to get into the luggage compartment in 911 4S :-)
What's that? A 9/11 edition of iPhone 4S? I kid, I kid đ
Here are couple additions that I have used in office environment and should work in the cockpit as well a) have a pair of face masks. this will help a lot if either of the two pilots in cockpit have a flu or fluish symptoms. Will stop other from getting sick. b) have a dozen pills of TamiFlu medications. will also prevent from getting the virus. c) would also like to have a good magnifying glass and/or telescope, unless they are already provided by the airline.
Hi, one important thing to mention: in modern glass cockpit aircrafts you should not use polarized glasses, for the simple reason that you would have a hard time seeing the MFDs and such.
I heard about it in another video, even tho, this problem should be avoided because polarization of glasses is known and standard. Unlike mobile devices which could be looked at different angles (of rotation, not vertical/horizontal angle), cockpit displays are fixed and unless you are laying down in cockpit, you are always looking in same angle.
Also, if you are required to use glasses, your sunglasses should also be correctional.
@@mrblc882 the windshield is also polarized, which is really a big issue
Great to see the 'hanging Buddha' đ
Learn a lot of things from the entire video. Tq
i bet that 99% of the people watching this video aren't even pilot
(im part of the 99% but i want to be the 1%)

Always wondered about that.
Thanks for sharing with us.
Thanx for the insight. I was always curious to know what does a pilot carry in their bag.
The spare socks can be a good idea if you get wet feet due to rain as well or snow. Because wet feet can in some cases cause you to get a cold. Also store two 5 liter plastic bags for freezing stuff in the fridge to make wellingtons out of dry socks and plastic before the shoes.
The other reason for a plastic clipboard is for security scans: A metal clip board can/will/should trigger the metal detector and show up on X-ray.
doesn't make sense. you still have the headset, ipad, torch and surely other items that would trigger the metal detector/show up in the xray. the only pro for having a plastic clipboard, IMO is being lightweight and to don't scratch the glare shield
Keep the tablet's screen facing towards the inside of the bag, so if the bag it hit by something, the screen won't be broken. Same concept as facing your phone's screen towards your leg if you keep it in your pocket.
Hi Mentour !
What is the model of your pilot bag ?
Thanks !
Hey pilot guy you forgot your parachute lol ..only kidding,,!!
I was thinking same thing :)
thank you for posting such an informative video... i wish I could be a pilot..
Very nice description of necessary things which have to carry of every pilot. Thanks a lot. Nice video.
Great video sir. Thanks for sharing quality information and your experience. Looking forward for more
Also, metallic clipboards will block the x-rays when youâre going through security
Very good video Petter. I want what's on the iPad though for my flight Simulator flights đ
That's actually a great idea. It would make a nice video knowing what apps you use, it might come in handy for simmers, if they're available.
Ian Livesey that software is usually proprietary to specific aircraft.
now im ready to become a full fledge pilot
Wow, this video got a lot of views. Well deserved! :)
Wow, he must be a good pilot, he has his own 777 jet with his name on it. I'm going to see if I can buy a seat on it.
Amazing video Captain! But where does a pilot carries his clothes, if he is going to stay in another town? Do you guys carry any additional bags in the cargo bay, like the check-in baggage?
Great video! Slight audio distortion on some loud parts of your presentation possibly due to volume set too high and not enough compression. Always enjoyed your presentations so informative. Thank you and God bless.
Uhhh... SLIGHT distortion?!?! My ears RINGED from this terrible distortion! I barely made it to the end, but the content was so interesting, I just did it
i always thought that you had a second pilot suite
excellent video ! video suggestion: what happened if a pilot sleeps in and is late for work
hot knife gaming this is a very pressurized industry. we understand, stuff happens. traffic, cars break down etc. .first thing that would happen is you call scheduling and let them know. what it's going to boil down to is the time you push from the gate. it's not a great scenario, say you push ten minutes late, generally no disciplinary action would be taken.
okay thanks !
Three layovers and you're a captain on a 737 ... that's quite funny - understand not your company policy. I like your content! :)
I love the look and design of that 737 tea cup/flask. Where did you get it?
Being a pilot having so many rules etc seems mind boggling
THIS WAS SUPER. I always thought these were maps, weather, blah blah blah and find out. It's just a suitcase of personal items. THANKS MENTOUR :-)
They did have maps & charts very bully. Now with modern technology, notebook & flashdrive no need for 2 bags.
Bulky. Edit.
Thank you it was nice finding what you hold in your bag.
There is nothing in my pilot bag, hahaha, and I don't need to have anything in there except maybe my personal iPad (long flights can get pretty boring).... put you passport/license in your pocket! :)))
So much for my frozen head theory. Its the perfect size.
And I always thought they brought a parachute in the bag :-)
daaamn i thought spilling coffee on my laptop would be worst nightmare, instrument panel of flying aircraft is whole new level of worst places to spill your coffee on :D
I had a good time saw your video. Now I am in UAE. I try to find job in civil aviation. Thank you.
Thanks for the video Mentour! As always very formative (especially when you are starting in the business).
Unfortunately, at the begining of the "food chain", I may have to go for the cheap option first...
Honestly that just depends on whether you can afford the expensive option up-front. If you can then you definitely should - it'll help you quite a lot through your training, and you won't have wasted money on the cheap option that you then replace with the expensive one anyway.
I've just started my training, and I have the same Bose A20 that Mentour has. They're amazing, and I'm really glad that I could afford them up-front.
(I realise I'm a bit late to the party here, but I figure this might still be useful for other people reading this)
I remember you did the same vid when you had a Benetton bag
yeah this is way better you have made a great work on the CZcams channel love that

Would it be possible to make a podcast about the applications in your Ipad, such as the chart and performance app?
Keep up the good work!
ipad has some very popular aviation navigation apps as well as things like electronic flight log and also a flight plan
Very interesting and informative. Many thanks.
LOL when I was hired in 85 we did not carry just about everything you took out of your bag. Things have changed in 33 years.
Commenting before watching. You need a towel!
funniest comment.... "you're going to be carrying it with your right, or left arm...." lol! :)
"You typically carry these things with your right or left arms." ...do pilots typically have more than just a right and left arm?
Yea the ones in Chernobyl have around 3-6 arms.
@@Nexalian_Gamer omg hahaha
Hey! Thanks for the videos, just got my first job for an airline and can't wait for the TR to begin! which bag is this that you're showing? I like lots of pockets and compartments!! :D
Hey, let me know if you were able to figure out the brand name of this bag. Thanks in advance.
Hey Mentour, can you do a video about vision requirements???
6/6 with or without spectacles.
Safe to say if you are in any doubt about your vision itâs probably a no.
