Wow, great to see some pics Julian and Peter, thanks! And both 90mm too.

How robust would the various optics be regarding refractor, MCT and SCT?
I'm thinking bone jarring corrugations here even though the scope should be in a foam enclosed case or bag.

From what I understand the SCTs are collimatable, the synta MCTs aren't. A refractor should be more robust. I'm keen on an 5" Mak as an addition but not sure I could risk it going out of collimation as I read it's expensive to fix.

Wavytone, thanks for the options, what have you travelled with that you would revise?
