Lo que encontró el hilo
- The carbon arm should be removed before flying and packed separately in checked baggage to reduce risk.
- A Pelican 1620 case can accommodate the harness vest and arm without the internal foam padding.
- A Pelican 1660 case provides enough space for the harness and additional equipment.
- Surplus military barracks boxes offer a lightweight and lockable alternative to commercial hard cases, with weight allowances up to 45 lbs for single units.
- Carrying the harness in cabin as carry-on without a protective bag has been done successfully on transatlantic and European flights, though this is considered risky by some.
- Bringing documentation such as an invoice and photo of yourself with the equipment may help if questioned at airport security.
Depende de
- Advice about removing the arm comes from a manufacturer recommendation but only one person acted on it.
- One person flew with the harness unbagged in cabin, which contradicts safety recommendations and may not be allowed on all airlines.
- Pelican case options vary in size; fit depends on individual harness specifications and whether internal foam is removed.
- The military barracks box approach is anecdotal and based on a single surplus find; availability at surplus stores not confirmed.
- Weight allowances mentioned for military boxes were stated as approximations.
- No systematic testing of soft bag protection during air transport was discussed.
