Cargo/belly pod

Post by samrutherford » Sun Jun 19, 2016 8:30 am

As the proud owner of an Avid 4, I have something of a luggage issue (space, not weight). I've seen some great US sourced cargo 'bullet' pods hung between the wheels - anyone seen/using over here?

Thanks, Sam.

I had a Kitfox visitor to my Strip a year or two back that had the US made Pod that looks like a bomb underneath. I think the Kitfox family have used these devices on a few aircraft around the world.
You can find reference to it here.
