My first "problem" traveling with my AL19 pony

Did you tell them you would also need snips to do that???

Flew to Texas once with some weights in my carry-on. Maybe 6 two pounders. Security guard picked one up and made a waving motion to see (I guess) if it was viable as a weapon. Yeah, that would be my weapon of choice if I were up to no good. Hitting someone with a small weight would make the other 200 passengers terrified of me.

They would surely know you weren't right in the head. LOL

RE: Filling a pony. I started with a transfill whip, but later got one of the integrated valve/regulators. The only way it's possible to fill it is from another tank. It's actually quite nice using a whip as you don't need to bother ever asking operations if they are ok filling your pony. You just fill it up before your first dive of the trip and then dump it later. Especially easy for ops that require a brief "check out" dive as your first dive since you'll have tons of extra gas anyway.

How much psi can you expect when filling a 19cf from an AL80?

2400ish if the al80 starts at 3000 psi

Could u put an oxygen reg on it and a doctor sign off ?

 

[happy-diver]

You could bypass the doctor and travel with it filled just by hooking it to your wheelchair

Maybe disguised like this
