Has anyone modified a -6 or -7 to accept a surfboard in the rear baggage area/tail cone?? Hoping not to have to use a belly pod.
Any pictures?
It seems as though I could get two 6?5? boards in there. I might even be able to get a 7?5? if I did not have a passenger and removed the right seat stick. (but much more fun going with buddies). I am not too worried about the CG as Surfboards are very light. But I am a slight bit concerned about removing the rear baggage bulkhead covers. I believe these are structural. Correct??
Also I would need to configure it so there is no chance of the board restricting the push rod.
How cool would it be to fly to a nice surf spot in your RV?!!![Big grin :D :D](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
