Won't be that cheap. Already know that. The Falcon II is a 130 dollar pack.
Looks great! I'd prefer the added MOLLE webbing on the upper portion of the straps (great for inverted knife carry) and across the face of the bag, but that's just me. If I end up in the market for another pack, I know what I'm going for!![]()
That is not the key point for me, as I don't fly as often as I used to, but it is definitely good thinking ... a friend of mine had a rucksack ripped on the conveyor belt in an airport, cause the straps were caught somewhere, not fun ...
It looks like a 3-Day assault pack...
Baggage handlers at airports are probably the main cause of luggage destruction. That would be human and mechanical. I watched one day behind the scenes as two baggage handlers tried alternately to rip a shoulder strap on a backpack by yanking it harder and harder. They stopped and laughed when they saw me watching but I believe that is commonplace. This pack will survive dumbasses like that![]()
