Will this be okay as a carry on with American's restrictions: 45 inches and 40 pounds. More concerned about size as I have more control over the weight with what I pack.

Depends on what airline and what size of plane. I've carried on via a la Cart on Horizon/Alaska Airlines and Delta; I was on their smaller planes. On bigger planes I've been able to shove it in the overhead compartment. I've flown quite a bit with it and never had a problem.

Strictly speaking, no. The packpack is slightly longer than the maximum carry on length allowed by most airlines, but I have taken it as a carry on on a few flights.
