Airport Security
Is there any information on the effect of the new
airport security rules on traveling amateur photographers? We will be traveling USA to Eastern Europe and back with film cameras and tripods, which in the past we carried on. o In the USA, can film still be hand inspected? o Is there any restriction on carry-on equipment? o Is there any restriction on batteries? o Are there any relevant published documents? o Anything else? Thanks for your help. Mike. |

This makes sense at first. However, a friend of mine who is in his 80's broke his walking cane so I made him a custom made walking stick out of an old Walter Hagen pitching wedge. It was the perfect length for him and the clubhead fit his hand perfectly. It even had the regular rubber grip on it. He loves his new walking stick and takes it everywhere he goes. Up until he tried to board a plane with it, that is. They wouldn't let him bring it on the plane. I guess they were worried that he might get a little chipping practice in during the flight. |
