    The problem that I've found with the heavy duty Pelican type of cases
    is that they themselves are fairly heavy. With most airlines changing
    their basic weight allowance from 70lbs/ bag to 50, this limits the
    amount of tools that you can bring. 

    I'm, always at 50 lbs these days-- used to push it to 70 but now I
    have the hosting organization provide some equipment that I used to
    bring.
