RE: Airline Inspections

["Barry, Ken" <kbarry@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Dena:

My advice is to give yourself lots of time to get through security and
keep your cool.  I also only travel with 25 sheet Kodak boxes for my
sheet film.  I have had serious problems with 100 sheet boxes, they are
just too big for them to not open or xray.

Good luck

Ken
