IIRC, it made the trip in a little over three hours. It would be doable flying east to west, with the time zones working for you. I think NYC is 5-6 hours behind Paris. Going the other direction, it's already lunch time in Paris before you even finish breakfast in NYC. On 6/26/2016 10:08 PM,

He doesn't come over as obnoxious until after his gear gets spilled on the tarmac. He does come over as not having done what he should to prepare for flight. As others have pointed out, he should have had a TSA approved lock on the case & not having insurance is just begging to be screwed by

That's where I'm at. Pelican plus TSA locks. The case won't pop open. And insurance is a must. Paul via phone > On Jun 26, 2016, at 1:21 PM, John Francis wrote: > >> On Sun, Jun 26, 2016 at 07:55:01AM -0500, Igor PDML-StR wrote: >> >> A horror story: >>
