Until 9/11, some airlines allowed this, some didn't. After 9/11,
everyone has gotten MUCH more restrictive. Although you might be able
to wrangle permission, it isn't worth the hassle - shipping them to
Philmont is trivially easy and relatively inexpensive. One thing you
don't need is being held up at your ticket counter on departure day
while everyone debates whether or not they will honor the permission
slip you got from the airline HQ's.
