I have a lowepro phototrekker AW II. It's fairly big but I can just squeeze it into carry-on. The nature trekker is a bit smaller and might be a better bet for getting it onto a plane.
I find mine is perfect; carries the shen hao, 9 regular film holders, 3 lenses, sekonic meter, accessories (filters, cokin adapter, wide angle bellows, lens wrench, cable releases, and other miscellany), etc, with room to spare. The included strap-on accessory backpack is very useful for carrying my dark cloth (couple of T-shirts actually) and spare film.
I bought the phototrekker for my DSLR kit and tried to sell it once I realized what overkill it was for that task (3 lenses and a camera body). However, I'm glad nobody wanted to buy it - once I got the 4x5 I realized it was perfect.
