New cargo pod makes motorcycles fly – while attached to a plane, of course
Airplane and motorcycle owners are probably a small niche of customers, but MotoPOD is thinking about them. The company even has a name for these people: “Motorcycle Pilot – noun. One who combines their hobbies of airplanes and motorcycles to achieve greater mobility and enjoy unique adventures.”
With these adventurers in mind, MotoPOD offers a cargo pod that allows a motorcycle to be attached and carried by a plane. This way, the pilot won’t risk being stranded on an airport with bad public transport connections and will be able to explore the surroundings much easier, then pack up the bike and be on his/her way.
So far, MotoPOD is completing products for the Vans RV-10, but STC’d models will soon be available for the Cirrus SR-22, Cessna 182 and others.
And since an image is a thousand words… A presentation video after the break.
