I have flown several times with a rig as carry on luggage. I always carry
a rig manual and license (US plus destination license if going out of US,
or CEPT language). Never had a problem. Worst case was having to put
radio in plastic tub for X-ray plus explosive swab.
Sometimes, when beginning or ending a trip on a small-plane regional
carrier, I have had to check my carry on luggage. But, a K-3 or smaller
radio (in a soft bag) should fit under the seat and avoid that
re-categorization as checked baggage. With a larger, hard-shell case, or
inside a larger "carry-on" the bag with radio might have to go to the cargo
hold.
