Hey guys, I'm strongly leaning towards this pack but I have a a question for those who have been using it for a while:
How is your experience flying with it? I like the concept of the mesh airspeed system but it doesn't seem very durable - like if it were to be thrown in next to someone's heavy square metal piece of luggage on a flight, it might tear and mess up the suspension balance.

I've had no durability issues with it being thrown in cars, trains, etc. If you were really concerned you could throw it inside another bag for the flight. (I believe Osprey makes a series of covers just for this purpose).

Can be carried on a flight. Super durable and guaranteed.

I have traveled with the Aura 50 (the ladies version). It is one of my favorite travel pieces because it is small enough for carry-on, but big enough to fit 2 weeks of stuff in when I went to Costa Rica. I have not seen any wear and tear on the air mesh backpanel after two more adventures with it--though I have only used it for carry-on--and on top of that, if you even begin to see wear and tear, send it in to Osprey. They have a lifetime guarantee and will fix that no charge.
