Do you trust TSA/baggage handlers when traveling with your camera gear?

Not a chance. When I travel with gear, it stays by my side at all times.

I'm with you.  Way to much getting stolen from keeping your gear below.  Play it safe and keep your camera gear up on top.

You'd have to be out of your mind to trust checking your gear if you've ever watched the way bags get thrown around in transit.

Did you hear about the computers that were stolen from passengers bags with United last year?

Here's the kicker, if the airlines fired or charged any handlers, the unions would shut down the airport (unless they are denied their cut).....This is an area the feds need to step it up, too much crime gets ignored.

Why so serious?
