My Waterman rollerball leaked in flight, so I thought, what the heck, let's carry a fountain pen since even a rollerball dares to leak!
It's just not the same writing with a ball point, although it's a nice ball point...
You are welcome! I bet you can get the little cartridge screw-pump adapters separately. I know I have already seen them but don't remember where. It's surprising the rollerball leaked. Did that happen with several cartridges or just one? Perhaps it was just a defect one. And, you are right, it is a totally different things to write with a nice fountain pen.
Obviously, keeping it upright will help. Good idea. It seems so self-evident one might not even think of doing it.
Cheers,
