Default transporting a foamie

well this summer i wanna bring my u can do ep to summer camp, me and my friend are looking forward to it. we cant find out how to transport them, the smallest box that would fix both of them would need to be 35" width 40" length and 36" high. its for boy scouts so it needs to be a box because otherwise it would get damaged. any ideas thanks

Wish I had a pic of Chip Hyde's box. Or maybe it was Jason Shulman's?

Anyway. It was a box built of plywood in a pentagon shape. It had velcro straps inside to hold the airplane. You could put it on an airline in the cargo hold and still get the plane in one piece.
