I haven't quite made up my mind yet... I was thinking of either the Powerseeker or the Travel Scope (both 70mm). However for an airplane the Powerseeker is a bit too long and heavy and they would want to have it in the cabin anyway because you can't keep objects of that shape (I mean so long) on a plane. Of course it is longer so the magnification is higher, but I don't need a new scope. I only wanted it for travelling, maybe walking (even here - terrestrial viewing), and for the sun, so maybe the Travel Scope is better? I already have a 2X and even a 3X Barlow anyway, so they would help with magnification.
