I am wondering if I can carry on my pac-a-seat , full of cables, effects, black box , volume pedal etc, etc and not have the Air Port Security put me in jail .?
I used to put it all in a carry on bag, but the was before current regs. The seat has no back and is smaller than most carryon bags. Anyone had experience with this.

My guess is that it will take a some time while they dissect everything in your seat? ![Whoa!](images/smiles/icon_omg.gif) _________________ Steeltronics Z-pickup,Desert Rose S-10 4+5,Desert Rose Keyless S-10 3+5...

You can leave the black-box at home, they already got one on the plane. ![Smile](images/smiles/icon_smile.gif) |

You can if it fits in the carry-on size test box (which I really doubt) and you're not carrying any tools in it - even a screwdriver will have you in a "meeting" with the finely-trained folks of airport security. You WILL be help up for quite a while because they may ask you to open up all electronic items - for which you need the screwdriver you can't carry.
I'd pad everything inside real well, check it and call it a day. _________________ No chops, but great tone

It has never worked for me. Not worth the trouble. To those $10 an hour Rambo's at secrurity weapons include almost everything: Tape, plyers(even blunt nose) , bar, cables. I have not had a problem with electronics though. They just swipe them with some bomb detecor stuff.
Also a pac a seat does not meet the measurment restrictions. I bring the pac a seat to luggage screening and make sure they tape it good if they want to look inside and then say a tearful gooodbye to it as it falls into the destrutive maw that is airline baggage. _________________ Bob |

Hey Bud, leave all of that stuff at home. You're more than welcome to use anything I've got here, and I have plenty of everything,(except the black box). |
