I was wondering what the procedure for handling these rather large steel containers would be. Would they be X-rayed? How much shielding would the steel provide for the contents?
About 3 years ago I went on an international flight with a large quantity of 35mm film. I had the film packed in my luggage inside a 50 caliber ammo can (made out of steel). When I glanced at the x-ray monitor as the bag went through, I could plainly see the individual rolls of film inside the ammo can. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Bill Frantz | Client in California, POP3 | Periwinkle -- Consulting (408)356-8506 | in Pittsburgh, Packets in | 16345 Englewood Ave. frantz@netcom.com | Pakistan. - me | Los Gatos, CA 95032, USA
