Homework before leaving to Madrid

Yes that's what I have to do. I'm going to Madrid and checked how I would get my sighting devices with me. Well the kind people at the baggage drop put me forward to the security check who kindly asked me to go to the ticket office since they see airplane parts made from carbonfiber as weapons. Yes you read that right, weapons...

So at the ticket office they looked at the sighting devices and told me that they will fit nicely (after some phone calls) in the cargo. But as all aerobatic pilots know that these are precision devices that will be crushed if they are wrapped only in plastic or cardboard and put in the same space as the baggage. There was only one solution left.
To build a sighting devices box!So here the box is after some cutting and screwing (not in the good old fashion way). Tomorrow I'll know how good my box came out, keeping my fingers crossed.
