[Trombone-l] Carry-On Instruments

[denton]

I too use the golf case bit.  Some Airlines (American/Qantas, I think 
Southwest) have an unusually high weight limit on golf clubs/bags.  It 
can be overweight but if they don't ask what's inside, it's free.  If I 
tell them it's my horn, though, it costs me $25.  When my horn is 
overweight, it goes free about half the time.

I'm happy to pay rather than risking an unexpectedly checked horn.  
Still possible that TSA will pull my horn out and drop it.  Or drop it 
twice (#@$).
