I make an STC'd pod for your 185 if you're interested. In fact, I think there are 2 of them in Wasilla. [email protected]

I really like our Piatt pod.

One solid day for initial install. Subsequent on and off is easy. Get two others to hold it up long enough to get 6-8 screws in. Then roll around on a creeper for 15 minutes getting the other 30 in.

Fly it, then snug them up.

Anyone know of a pod that fits a C170B? I'd love to pack some stuff OUTSIDE the cabin... Thanks
