bikeslut 1 Posted December 10, 2008 it has propellers And we'd never find anybody that rides AND knows how to fly... (will it pull a toy hauler?) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Strega 0 Posted December 10, 2008 it has propellers And we'd never find anybody that rides AND knows how to fly... (will it pull a toy hauler?) Well, HondaPilot and I could both fly it, and we both ride. It's a WIN WIN!! (I'd just need to get checked out in that type ) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PastaPilot 17 Posted December 10, 2008 Nice plane. The Twotter would be a good plane to drop us all into a tiny little runway in _______. Although I think you'd need at least 4 people to load the bikes in that rear door. This little gem is more of the toy hauler you'd want. The Shorts SC.7 Skyvan. Although I think it is a little slower and certainly uglier than the Otter the big cargo door, lower deck height and more interior volume would certainly make up for it. Hell it even looks like a toy hauler on the inside... Pardon the skydivers my other pic got snuffed I'd be happy to fly either one of them. Since Roger's buying he can fly too Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Strega 0 Posted December 11, 2008 If we're gonna go with a SkyVan, we should get one that has a sweet paint job. HI RES IMAGE HERE Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Strega 0 Posted December 11, 2008 I'm nearly positive that would fit 6 people, 6 bikes, and luggage. Soon as I'm the rich guy, I'll get right on it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
paulmbowers 236 Posted December 11, 2008 I call shotgun! And bring my music! Oh, wait. I can't fly. But I've seen it on TV lots of times, and really, how hard can it be? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bbg.will 0 Posted December 11, 2008 What about this? I think you could easily fit 8-10 bikes + 8-10 people & gear, tons of gear, +2 pilots. You could land anywhere, and if you couldn't get your bike out with its wheels on the ground, its capable of lifting up to 25,000lbs slung underneath, AND you could install up to 24 medivac litters to sleep on.

See, there you go, we got our pilot, and I'll volunteer my services as a qualified h-53 electrician/mechanic. Now we need someone to fork out the 35+ million dollars to buy it, plus enough money to fill the 3100 gal fuel that puppy holds. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Strega 0 Posted December 11, 2008 I think even if someone GAVE us an H-53, between all of us we couldn't even afford to fly it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PastaPilot 17 Posted December 11, 2008 I forgot to let my imagination run wild... Here I thought we were just looking for something realistically possible. Good luck with that helo thing, 2wheels is a whirlie-bird pilot if you can't find the other guy. I'll bring my truck to unload all the cash it'll take just to get that stallion off the ground.
