That wouldn't work now. A 90lb package would be overweight and
guaranteed to require a sizable fee (unless you know the gate
agent...hi!!). But... at least you'd know where it was!!!!!

I just got email from a guy who checked a 90+ pound military boatanchor as a
piece of LUGGAGE on a flight from the UK to the US. This was some time ago,
so apparently he wasn't charged for the extra weight.
I'm amazed that it survived, even if packed in a box. Can you imagine the
bang when that thing came rocketing down the conveyors?!
