Cargo Net ?

Saw a early model 180 with Good looking Cargo Net system .
It came from Mountain Air > in McCall ,ID. I was told they had a
web site for there Cargo Nets. I looked and couldn't find it.
Has anyone got this Web site or Contact Phone Number. Thanks

I believe the source for the cargo nets is Lori MacNichol. She makes them by hand and places very strong looking clamps around the edges. I was told they cost $550.00 to $600.00.
Here is a link ti the contact info

"Sherry" at McCall flying service (next door to Lori MacNichol) states
she "Sherry" sews for the airline couple who have Mountain Air -maker
of these cargo nets. Lori MacNichol may use these (small town 3800 souls)
but she doesn't produce as I know of.

I know for certain she sells them because I was just there and there is one hanging from the ceiling. I asked how much and that is the story that went with the answer.

I've not seen the net you speak of, but I have seen several sold for SUV's and Jeeps for a lot less money. Try JC Whitney or similar if you think those might work.

The name is "Mountain Wave Aviation". Phone is 253-872-9211 or cell 805-340-5703. Mark and Anne McClellen. They make a quality product that also has several removable pockets for gear/whatever. I bought one for my Cessna and it was set up to attach to the overhead spar, shoulder harness bolts, and the seat rail cargo units. I believe it was around $450. I'm real happy with it and everyone I have run into wanted one. Give them a call, they are nice people.

Cargo Net

I second Dave Hanst's comments about the cargo net from Mountan Wave Aviation in McCall. I've had one in my C-182 for about a year now and couldn't live without it. Hey Dave, nice meeting you last week at Chamberlain. Dave Prather ('56 182)

Friend of mine made a really nice cargo net from one of those Baja style webbing tailgate nets.

Here's a pretty nice one, you could probably pick one up cheaper at Shucks.
