    DJTechTools,

    I am about to fly state-side from Canada to perform a gig and get some studio time. I have a Numark MixTrack Pro (Same size as S4) and a 13" MacBook Pro I need to take in my carry on. I would preferably also like to bring my Pelican Stand Pro, but I don't NEED to. The size restriction on Carry-Ons for the airline I'm flying is: 21.5"x9"x15.5" and 10 Kilos. Weight is not a problem but size might be. Does the Controllerist Backpack you sell fit within that size bracket? I need an answer as soon as possible.

    Cheers-
    Ian

    I fly 6 to 7 times a year and trust me they never check the size, if it can fit on your back or in your lap your good to go. I also have the mixtrack pro and have flown with it, my laptop, stand, and keyboard all shoved into a backpack.

    What bag do you use to store your MixTrack?

    I've been checked a few times internationally. Italy and Greece. It just depends on how strict the airline is.
