This is a lovely Beaulieu 708 flight case. I have been looking for one of these for ages but this one is just TOO much at E400.

Mind you, if someone had one of these in nice condition I might pay half that amount.

Yeah I posted elsewhere a few weeks ago surrounding this one here Steven. I think the dealer will do very well indeed to find anyone to part with this kind of money for a flight case.
No matter how official!

A replica could be custom manufactured for a fraction of that price!

Isn't there a Bauer one that is the same but only the 'name band' is different. I think it might have been a generic case. I'd like an original, though. But not at any price...

A friend here passed over a silver heavy duty flight case to me not long back Steven.

It fits the Beaulieu with its foam cut out like a glove but I have absolutely no idea what machine this case was originally supplied for.

I shall ask my friend for you Steven, see if he knows.

It's larger than a Bauer studio case but probably identical sized to many for the 16mm machines including those Bauer P series projector cases you speak of Steven.
