I've flown several times with bows in two different SKB cases. They've always arrived at baggage pick-up with some new scratches, but otherwise intact. The first model was a triangular style that was a "carry only" model. Sold it when I bought a Matthews Switchback XT as it would not fit that case due to the parallel limb design of the bow. Purchased a rectangular SKB model that has wheels, which is nice if you have a long walk to or from the parking lot. Both had very sturdy locks and are advertised as 'airline approved' or some such claim. Never had any issues at check-in with either.
