If a person wanted to take an "emergency kit" on a plane, what could you bring and still have a decent kit?

Sure does. I just focused on California as that is the group topic. Normally when I am out of state, which is quite often on business, I carry a severely reduced set of essentials - personal medications - prescribed and OTC, small food items, liquids, small trash bag and zip lock bags, small towel, windbreaker, an AM/FM/SW radio or Marine radio with weather band, and an amateur radio hand held. This is because modern air travel restricts what can be carried on the plane - either by TSA rule or airline baggage fees.  I also carry a set of tools as checked luggage as a part of my work.   My opinions still stand as to what I would carry in the trunk of my car as the basics no matter where I am.   73, kevin kc6pob --- On Wed, 7/21/10, lnmolino@aol. com <lnmolino@aol. com> wrote: From: lnmolino@aol. com <lnmolino@aol. com> Subject: Re: [californiadisaster s] Roadside emergency kits To: californiadisasters @yahoogroups. com Date: Wednesday, July 21, 2010, 7:56 PM   In a message dated 7/21/2010 9:04:23 P.M.
