Hi tan
I fly a lot and use a pelican 1600 for air travel: holds
2X LX
1X MX
8 pentax lenses
2 converters
1 voigtlander body
2 lenses
1 xpan body
2 lenses
1 vivitar 283
1 vivitar 2500

no way to carry this lot on board with room for film too!

I use a hefty combination pelilock and the case is bright [well dirty]
yellow.  

I also have a pelican 1500 that holds 5 more vivitar 283s, quantum battery
packs,polaroid back for LX, slaves, flashmeter and all my other lighting
goodies.

I have seen these literally being thrown on the plane [like a masochist I
always sit over the luggagehatch to watch them being
loaded]..........................................so far so
good.............the 1600 cost USD 30 on ebay!

I carry on a billingham hadley with 2x voigtlander bodies and more lenses +
FILM and if poss a Billingham 225 [normally has the pentax gear in] full of
FILM
If this isn't feasible then you can get an awful lot in a domke vest!
[doesn't count as carry on!]

just be sure to check in early enough for them to security check all
this..............
Just my .2 euro worth
