I carry my optics on the plane.  Binoculars, spotting scope, cameras, =
and lenses.
I would not trust the luggage handlers to carry this equipment.  I have =
checked my
tripod in the past, but it was damaged in flight.  One small bag is =
enough to carry
most of it.  I put it in the overhead bin or under the seat in front of =
me.
The tripod goes in the overhead bin.

I think that the airlines will give you $6/pound, or something like =
that, if they
lose your luggage.
