Looking for tech advice:
I will be flying to Papua in Sept with all my dive gear for a week of diving. I usually fly with all gauges and regs as carry on for safe keeping (safe arrival and safe from theft).
However, since I will be touring the area for a while, I wish to ship back (via DHL) ALL my dive gear (gauges and regs as well).
Question: is it truly safe for the gauges and regs (re: lack of pressurization in cargo) to be air shipped and put through a few flights back home to Canada?
(I am aware of the risks of airport cargo handling, but the my concern is about the lack of air pressure control in airplane cargo.)
Cheers,
Luci
