Thank you Dave, Red, Ed and Dave ;-)
No, as for me, this is exactly the time for this question.
Not sure I will be lucky as guy from Sweden with two Orions checked in.
Once I traveled to Paris, the airport personel broken tiny print-holder
housed in a bunch of t-shirts inside my bag ..
So, looks like only two option available:
1. carryon w/o box
2. housed into Pelican box
That why, my another question: do you have idea which one Pelican case
is most suitable for Orion ? I've found that 1650 is too large. What
about 1610 ?
