Hi just a question. Regarding carrying gear onto the aircraft to spirit of freedom, do they actually check your baggage weight? because it says 20KG and i may be a few over as I'm taking my gear up.

honestly no-one cares what you're wearing! everyone is too tired at the end of the day.
I think i packed (for the short cod hole trip) underwear, 2-3 pair of boardies and 4 or 5 tee-shirts. no socks/shoes just thongs (flip flops/jandles whatever they're called in the US).
other than that, a light water proof jacket a light jumper and maybe a pair of jeans which i didn't wear.
everyone was dressed in a similar fashion. those that had what I'd call dress shorts only had one pair, all but 1 person wore tee-shirts the entire trip.
my gear is heavy (13.5kg without camera+strobe) and i was well under on total weight. Mike Ball also weighed my dive/clothes bag but i believe did not weigh my back pack with my camera gear.

Same. I pack a couple of bikinis, a couple of pairs of board shorts, 3-4 tshirts, a light jumper and toiletries. That, plus dive gear, plus basic camera gear comes in around 18kg. If you're doing the fly-dive itinerary, you're only out there for 4 days, you don't need that much stuff.
