[Trombone-l] flying with double bag

[Jeff Albert]

Yeah, I guess carry on is the preference.  I have hard cases that are
quite concise that I usually carry on, but I usually only have one
horn.  I could check one and carry one.  If a double would fit, that
would be the ideal solution.  I'll investigate plane types.

Thanks,
Jeff
