Default Flight Case Organizer

I just purchased a Coyote Works flight case and noticed that it didn't come with any Jepp - type binder dividers. My company only uses 2 Jepp binders and the remainder of space in my previous bag was used for my headset, AOM, flashlight etc.

My question is whether anyone recommends a good organizer for the odds and ends in their flight case or what methods do you use to organize the material in your flight bag?

Any constructive information is appreciated.

Thanks!

I would advise using a couple cans of that expanding foam crack sealer they sell at Home Depot. I think it's called Great Stuff. It will really keep all that important flying gear from ratling around. It would be a shame for those loose Jepps to smash the Sporty's Cloud Top Sight Gage, or the hand-held transceiver.

Tongue-in-cheek of course. Did you really expect constructive advice on how a grown man should organize a flight case? I think there is an add for Flight Bag Organzing Seminars over on Flight Info.

Don't go getting all sensitive and hurt on me...I am just breakin your stones a little.

But in this case this is a mediocre idea receiving much needed ribbing from some fairly sharp minds

My flight case is so jam packed with binders that I can't "organize" any other crap in there.

I have a small flashlight, one of those tiny logbooks and some grizzly mint.

I need a new flight case. And less Jepp plates

You purchased a $400 flight case, it should be hand delivered by a flight case specialist, and he can show you how to organize it... jk...

Can't you buy the special organizing attachments for it? Side pockets too and what not...

No internal organizer is offered, just the end pocket and a top flap organizer for pens/miniMaglite/passport, etc.

really nice case, though.

Yeah i actually wanted to buy it, but unless i worked for Xjet and payroll deducted it, I wouldn't be able to afford it. Although they did offer financing for $150 down and the rest of the payment in the next two months but I needed one right away so I just got a LW.

You're on crack today, aren't you? Hopefully you don't get selected "randomly."
