60Kg ; yuppers. I travel ( unless impossible to do so ) with all my own gear. Places may hire cylinders, however they tend to be cruddy low capacity aluminium cylinders and often do not have DIN fittings plus tend to be filled to a low pressure. Often no weight belt is needed so that isn't an issue
When on my own at 45m, I do not want to be relying on equipment which I do not know how well has been maintained
Makes me very happy with the new BA luggage policies

.. 114Kg allowance...mmmmmm
