Metal Innovations Inc., a leading service provider of innovative solutions, is proud to announce the imminent approval for Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) Supplemental Type Certification (STC) for its improved Cessna 208B Caravan Cargo Pod design for longer payloads and greater hauling flexibility.
AURORA, Ore., Sept. 14, 2022 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Metal Innovation's new Cessna 208B Cargo Pod Improvements address the current dimensional limitations by transitioning the current fixed layout to a value-added flex-use configuration. Adding a rear ramp door and replacing the immobile partitions with easily removable dividers allows owners to retain multiple compartments or transform the space to a never-before free span end-to-end 13.5"H × 32"W × 12'-16'L solution. In addition, the improvement creates immense hauling flexibility and efficient utilization of the aircraft by shifting the transportation of long items such as full-dimensional lumber, skis, surfboards, and even kayaks from the passenger compartment to the cargo hull where they belong.
"We have had numerous customers, especially those operating in remote locations, struggle with cargo limitations created by the existing pod's immobile divider configuration. We are excited to offer them a fantastic solution for the streamlined transport of building supplies and recreational equipment.", Kim Wilmes, CEO.
"We strive to develop products that improve efficiency and operators' competitiveness within the marketplace. Our new design allows customers to transfer items, only previously able to fit in the cabin to the Pod, freeing premium space for passengers and optimizing shipment configurations.", Craig Wilmes, COO.
Metal Innovations is currently booking Cargo Pod Upgrade installation timeslots for December 2022. Both onsite and in-house installation options are available. Don't hesitate to get in touch with a representative to schedule today.
