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.
