Travel with Hikers stoves

Hello from Dayton Ohio.

I need some advice from the List..

Some friends and I are planning a backpacking trip to Lake Tahoe this
fall. We plan to fly to Tahoe where one of the group has a timeshare and
then move on from there.

My dilemma is ..I recently purchased a Peak 1 butane hikers stove. I am
wondering if anyone knows what the rules are about taking the fuel
cannisters on an airplane (in the cargo hold) as they are pressurized
flammable gas. In the light of the TWA 800 theories I wonder if there
would be a problem, or should I plan on purchasing the fuel in Lake
Tahoe.

Any input would be jelpful.

Thanks

YIS
