When I took Spitfire to the States we stripped it down completely and took it as hold luggage. With 4 team members this is quite easy. The complete chassis was wrapped up and this was counted as a single piece of luggage. Various parts have to be carefully wrapped and or placed in different suit cases but this is by far the easiest and cheapest way to take your bot over the pond.

Surgeon General was the one that bust up KillerHurtz in 2001.
Bender was at BB in 2002.
Megabyte needs no introduction.
Eugene - nice machine - fought Storm II at RoboGames last year.
Warrior (Spinner/flipper) - another interesting machine from Team Whyachi, has been round for a while.
Diesector is a well known machine from Donald Hutson, used to be a super heavy.
