I travel by air weekly and carry the D800E, 70-200/2.8, 150/2.8 macro,
50/1.4 plus filters, accessories, batteries on planes (in a Lowepro
backpack) several times a month. I haven't weighed it. I'm guessing 25
lbs or more. It goes in the overhead or at my feet depending on the
size of the plane and my luggage is checked.
I'm frequently in 1st class, but not all the time. That does make it a
little easier.
It really all depends what one intends and how much effort one is
willing to expend to be prepared for their intentions.
Yes it does take extra effort to carry a heavier kit. If I don't plan
on using the D800E, I take the NEX-7 kit which is 1/8 the weight and
1/5 the size. So basically I agree.
Just thinking that back 10+ years ago, these options didn't exist.

My hat's off to you, Tom... You're a patient and a strong man.
