Re: Carrying F1D on Board Airliners

From what I understand the dimension the most affected is shrinking the depth of carry on bags to 7.5" from 9". They say it is to keep passengers from over stuffing luggage, which makes them too fat. My box is already longer than the width dimension, being 23.5", so I don't see the major problem there. I am assuming the overhead bin will stay the same size. If this is the case, could we still convince them to bring our model boxes into the cabin, since the models are extremely delicate, and will fit in the bins since they can't be "overstuffed". If not, then what?

   Its looking like the airlines are going to start shrinking their carry on baggage sizes. This would mean it is no longer possible to 55cm models in the overhead bins.
