It may fit in one of the "carry on luggage" roll around suitcases which are popular these days. Can get one for $20 at Walmart or Kmart. Then use dense foam to make custom fit. If its too large for over/under seat then often one can carry on a large piece to be stored in a closet in the galley. The only way to get real answers is to call the airlines and ask. Make sure they know its a fragile computer worth $10,000 and they'll cut you some slack simply to keep from having to handle the thing themselves. Or drive it yourself in the car. -- David Kelly N4HHE, dkelly@hiwaay.net ===================================================================== The human mind ordinarily operates at only ten percent of its capacity -- the rest is overhead for the operating system.
