For all the people who say you can carry-on a set of gear, how much does your kit weight?
Although my stuff is definitely heigher than average - SS BP/W & Jetfins are the two worst culprits - even if I replaced these with flimsy versions there is no way I could get anywhere near allowable carryon weight.
BP/W - 4kg
XL Jet Fins & SS straps - 3.5 kg
Reg set - 3kg
Wetsuit - 2kg for 3mm
Booties - 500g
Camera & case - 500g
Repair kit & logbook - 2kg
Torch 1kg
SMB & reel 500g
Total 17kg.. with a lightweight BP/W, fins and torch I could get that down to 12kg.... still double what most airlines I fly let you carryon and there are definite problems with size of the bag too.
This is not including clothes, toiletries, books or anything... or the weight of the bag.
