Aog tools
I got my new case for AO. G for CRJ platforms. I am wondering if there is anything else i might be missing or recommendation to fill it

Crowsfoot set, a ford wrench or knipex plier wrenches, a mallet, knipex cobra pliers, a pick set, a standard flat head, and maybe a larger ratchet also. That’s what I can think of off the top of my head

why are you packing so light? I would bring more of everything you are not going to need to hike your AOG kit anywhere why not fill it with more tools? If I were you id fill it till I can barely carry it, better to have it an not need it then to not have it and need it.

Yeah either that or figure out the weight limit you gotta work with.
If im traveling for work im usually flying delta and they start their overweight fee at 51lbs so I stuff my pelican full of 50 lbs of tools which is enough to get everything important plus a few extras.
We gotta be lookin at like 20lbs of tools here, if that.

Im confused, you have that whole case and planned on putting like 8 tools in it?
No vice grips? Duck bills? Drill? Speed handle? More then a few wrenches? Pry bar? Dead blow? Knipex? Screw extractor? Why not fill that sucker up?
