I'm so sorry to hear about the easels and pochades that were broken or crushed! Awful! I traveled twice with paint since 9/11 and was told by the teacher, Joe Paquet and P.A.P.A. teachers, that if I was asked if the paint was flammable to answer that it is of a vegetable oil base only, and not at all flammable. All turps, mediums were to be bought on site. Palette knives went in my luggage. I carried my easel and tripod with me in a backpack and there was no problem.
