Several yeares ago, on a return flight from Maine, I had a Davis Mk. 15 with me, a carry on piece.
The security peson at check in, a lady, asked what was in the ehite plastic case. I told her it was "a sextasnt", to which she responsed with a double take or blank look. When I opened the case for her she said "oh a navigastional instrument", to which I responsed yes, going on my way, without additional question.
So much for my adventures with the air transport of sextants.
