flight case servante

French to English Art/Literary Cinema, Film, TV, Drama

flight case servante (0.81m x 0.61m x 0.980m)

I'm not sure that this is specifically a flight case with drawers. So I'm looking for confirmation that it can't be something else.

Otherwise, what's the best English term/description?

David Vaughn (asker) Aug 27, 2007: Tony - How can I give you any points if you don't answer? ;-))
Tony M Aug 27, 2007: (look what it comes fitted with...)
Tony M Aug 27, 2007: If you look at this page (one up from yours): http://www.eurofly-france.com/catalog/default.php?cPath=146_... you will see that as I had felt, they refer to it as a 'flight case POUR servante' — but I think they mean 'for use as...'
Tony M Aug 27, 2007: In that case, I take back what I said above: it's not a brand, but as you said, a flightcase with drawers.
David Vaughn (asker) Aug 27, 2007: I get googles like this http://www.eurofly-france.com/catalog/product_info.php?produ... suggesting a kind or brand of flycase - but don't see any detail that would allow me to trancher.
Tony M Aug 27, 2007: It's unusual (but not entirely impossible) for a flight case of these dimensions to have drawers; could it not in fact be a flight case FOR a 'servante'? Isn't that some special kind of lighting device?
