Getting tools and equipment through American airport security is one thing, International security is a whole different ball of wax (at least from my experiences with it...).
Also, what about batteries? I know that we were lucky enough to have Ricky Q drive ours down to the Championships, but I would be very interested to know how you guys got yours to your regional(s).

tools : I think we stuck as much as possible in the crate and then paid overweight charges.... and then we had 2 huge toolbags as luggage.... whilst someone shared around their clothes....

Pass, it is still under consideration as to the location....

see the other main thread about it for more info... me and the London firsters (including a first judge... Vijay K from Chesapeake regional) are going to be meeting up in 3 weeks and discussing it all and making some plans hopefully
