The great travel BC topic

My BP with Pioneer wing fits nicely in a standard-size carryon, along with mask, regs, computers, and some clothing.

I looked at the Zeagle and it is very nice for its price, for the moment is second in my preferencies just behind the Transpac,
I don't want a Bp for travelling, it is little bit too heavy to carry around, I usa one already at home for the "heavy" dives.
Like the idea of the transpac which I can also use at home when diving singles with my girlfriend, maybe with a trek bladder

Transpac II with travel wings. Take a look at Leisurepro, they might have a good price.

Northeastwrecks has the right idea.

A Halcyon Pioneer setup is the way to go.

I don't think they make the 18lbs wing anymore. I have the 27lbs wing and it's great.

I'm told that they will make a special run if you ask nicely. It might also be possible to find one in someone's stock.

Otherwise, go for the 27.

I found this in another thread. It looks like it might be something to add to the list. (The IDI travel thing is the seventh one down.)

I have an aluminium backplate and small wing for travelling, very light and packs down small. How about a Buddy travel wing?

Would anyone suggest the ScubaPro S-tek with the Travel Wing?
Why and Why not?

Thanks

I think that an AL B/P with a Pioneer wing would do fine. Maybe even a Koplin cut-away AL B/P with the matching lightweight STA. Also with the proper slots in the B/P and a Pioneer wing, you can eliminate a seperate STA. Doesn't get much lighter than that.

It costs as much as a new Halcyon b/p and wing. If you want something less, you should pay less for it.
