Sup /trv/. I'm going on vacation and I want to carry an Ottway telescope with me. It's a small, hand-held telescope (like what pirates and naval officers used to use). I want to keep it in my carry-on, but I'm not sure if this would cause any problems with flight security?

It's very obviously a telescope, but I've heard horror stories about airlines holding up flights because something a traveller was carrying looked like it could be a bomb / hold a bomb / whatever.

I don't see why this would cause a problem. Just pack it in your stuff; if they ask, just tell them what it is. People have binoculars and telescopes all the time, not to mention camera lenses. I don't think it'd seem unusual. There's no wires or electronics, so nbd.

Carry ons go through xray.

please use it as often as possible during the flight. also don't forget to tip your fedora every time you see a stewardess.

Pretty much. I once had a desktop PC power supply in my carry on bag on a domestic flight, that generated some funny looks at the X-ray but a short explanation was enough, a simple tube like that shouldn't pose a problem.

Thought it was a vape! Lol!

But you should bring a vape instead!

shouldn't cause any problems.

t. x-ray man

Did you ever try to x-ray your penis? :D
>>
>>1267445
No. But I've x-rayed my hand. Gave my friend, who was operating the screen, quite a shock.

If I ever get cancer in that hand I'll know why.

People bring medicine with them in their carry-ons all the time. It's very easy to mistake them for illegal recreational drugs, but nothing ever happens to them.

if youre in the US tsa.gov has a "can I bring it" feature.
There is even an easter egg on there, search for "lightsaber"
