Great work!! Noticed the mud splatter below the door in pic 1, but now on the cargo pod in pics 2 & 3... :(

Very nice. Will the cargo pod be detachable?Cheers,Fritz

Yeah! Getting better all the time!

Looking good!

Very nice. Will the cargo pod be detachable?

I'd like to know that as well, because not all bush flights are cargo runs. ;)I certainly would love to fly the tundra version without cargo pod.

What an awesome model you folks have made. Carenado is absolutely tops in that category--flawless. :( I've been checking the site several times a day, waiting for the float version to be released.

In real life how do you attach/detach the cargo pod?

It will have the option to detach the cargo pod in the tundra, amphibian and ski versions.Carenado

In real life how do you attach/detach the cargo pod?

In a light aircraft like the 185, typically the pod is held on by bolts. It is removeable, but it's not a quick task. It takes 4 to 5 hours to remove or install it (once it's been installed initially) because you have to remove the interior to get at the belly of the airplane from inside. On larger, and pressurized aircraft, it's generally laminated on or fixed more or less permanently.Hope that helps.

Thanks Glenn. I would have guessed Cessna had some sort of quick-connect system.
