I was thinking: What is the advisability of removing the LP and HP hoses from the 1st stage for travel? I would of course install plugs in the holes, and cap the hoses. I would have spare o-rings, lube, and wrenches. I'm intending on traveling with our regs and other heavy items as carry-on. Dis-assembled, they would be easier to carry, with less strain on the connections. Comments? Suggestions?
