I wonder if you flew to Germany to get it, if the
airline would mind if you took it back with you as
checked on baggage... ohhhh my back. 

Folks,

The question was baggage.

You can do air freight. You drive the rental car and anchor to the air 
freight terminal point and pay some bucks to get the crate loaded on the same flight 
you will fly. Check in the rental car and checkin for your flight. On the 
other end you pick up the car and drop by the air freight terminal and pick up 
your anchor.

Worked for Hughes and Raytheon until I retired. This was standard procedure. 
Here state side we would pack a 200 - 250 pound two man lift crate. (Please do 
no tell OSHA we did a two man lift on 250 pounds on and off a tail gate.) You 
could have that crate go alone for just under $100.00 about 45 - 50 cents a 
pound.
