We actually ship hand carts so we can manage the equipment at both airports. I think the baggade handlers enjoy seeing how high the carts bounce when dropped 10 ft. (We've had the bearings broken in wheels, frame bent, etc., all considered normal wear and tear).

Did I ever mention that the Championship should move out west for a couple of years? Jet lag, ticketing lines and cunfosion, waiting for luggage, explaining RC controllers to TSA, should be experienced by the whole FIRST community.

Oh, yeah. Next year there's a Hawaii regional. If your going, have a nice flight!!

Truer words were never spoken.
