What a read, indeed. Only your pics didn't come out, and I don't know what a 319 looks like. Congratulations on your acquisition and perseverance to get it home with you. I fly with a sewing machine of one kind or another all the time, only on SW from Nashville to Austin, and mostly with a Featherweight. It does get some funny looks when I go through security, and they sometimes make me step to one side while they finish looking at it on their monitors. This from a little ol' lady who is afraid of fireworks and guns.....but I am careful to smile and say "sure" when they ask me to step out of line.
