This has been nagging at me a bit since yesterday. Our robot has four nitrogen-filled gas springs on board and we shipped several spares alongside it in our crate. My assumption has always been that the crates are shipped via ground transportation, but is there any chance that they may be moved by aircraft?

Some may recall my frustration a few weeks ago with McMaster-Carr when they shipped an entire order via ground instead of overnight as we specified because they said that the gas springs were unable to travel via air freight. I've some concern that it's unsafe for the gas springs in our crate to be moved by aircraft.
