My dad took a turbo in hand luggage as it was for a Volvo digger and much cheaper to buy in this countary ! I waited in the carpark until he got through!
No problem tho woman on the scanner said that you would be surprised what people take in their luggage lol
Like most things I surpose it's down to the mood of the officials if they want to be wankers you have no chance.
If it dosnt owe you much I'd wing it lol
