Bringing Planes on Planes....Security?
Has anyone traveled with their favorite plane lately? Is security tough for getting a small plane on board of a commercial flight? My Wife's family has a nice farm up north with lots of room to fly. I would like to bring some small planes, but I don't want to get them crushed if the have to go underneath with the heavy luggage. I don;t want to get them taken away either. Any tips on traveling with small park flyers would be wonderful. Thanks,
WB

WindBreaker,
I recently got the urge to take a trip with my Zagi. I mailed it to my destination and brought all of the radio gear on board. The authorities didn't say much except, "So, are you going to fly rc planes?" The reason I didn't bring my Zagi on the plane was because I thought that it would be too big. Probably, a smaller park flyer wouldn't be a problem.
Good luck and happy flying.

I wouldn't think it would be a security issue.
I have heard of people using a golf bag to transport their planes in. If you have a rigid one it should protect the planes nicely.

Box them up and put them on a Greyhound bus, virtually no restrictions and easy care, reasonable pricing. All you need to do is pick it up from the station and deliver it back too it when you leave...................
