There are very clear guidelines and rules published about what you can and can't carry. If you google it... I'm sure you'll find it. 'IATA' maybe help in the search.

I know about this because it can be tricky for Amateur Radio guys to carry their equipment... unless you follow the procedures. Part of which is printing and carrying a copy of the rules with you... as most airport security people won't have a clue !
 
Got it through without any real trouble, they took my bag and opened it and asked what it was, I explained and they said OK, I did not take any probes, pointy bits avoided.
 
You could make your own or use a good quality travel adapter with your uk plug.
Just thought I would update this, travel adapter's unfortunately don't work as the adaptor turns the UK plug upside down therefore reversing the L/N got over this by putting French plug on a short lead to a UK extension socket.

Was this really a year ago, doesn't time fly.
