Thanks, all for the valuable input.
I'm reading that at least A-5 had radium-filled mass for the bubble chamber illumination. I'm afraid - several other models could also be radioactive - which precludes them from being allowed into public places (like a passenger aircraft) until properly treated. Is this treating possible (at home)? Me doubts that such an untreated piece would be allowed even for an international shipment.
Apart from that - the A-5 looks smaller than the A-10, is this so?
Warm regards,
Tony
