I have had an MK67 and a TV85 as my Airline portable scopes. I prefered the image Quality of the TV85. I am now looking to upgrade to the largest Apo That can fit in an overhead bin. Thank you in advance.

dont know if this is price range you want to deal with, but the TMB 105 has a collapsong dewshield. I get it into a large tamrak camera bag WITH giro mount AND ep's including 31nagler PLUS extra padding (the bag already has paddding as well). with a backpack sling, this setup although heavey is airline portable, i've done it on 3 occassions, 2x after 911. again, though it is very dense. do some conditioning before hand (im serious - i swimm 2-3 times a week and feel fit, and it aint easy wrestling the pack around) and when you stroll past checkin, wipe the sweat off your brow and you'll be fine.
