I've carted my ICOM 22 all over the world, whether I've intended to fly or not (the rest of the world's versions of R/T can often provide plenty of amusement) and have never had anybody bat an eyelid at it with one exception ...... Once at Dubai, on the way to Manchester, in mid '98 the security screening guys got quite excited until I explained that they actually sell the identical model of ICOM IC-A22E in the duty free shop in Dubai airport.
