John, I got my pod from a guy in Fl. back in 1994. I think they were originally made by a fellow named BJ. I didn`t buy mine from BJ but someone else.

John,

My pod (NX36MG above) looks to be same as Rick's. Mine was made by B.J. Taylor, but he doesn't make them anymore. Last time I talked to him, he didn't have the mold anymore.

I just happened to run across some parts, and picked up the pod.

Here's another shot of the pod. It's a little out of focus, as I didn't have my digital camera at the time, and was using a disposable.

Check www.ultralighthomepage.com , then click on classifieds, then click on instruments/avionics. I believe George H in New Ellenton, SC is the guy selling 3 styles of pods.

Thanks all! Thanks Mike!

As soon as I get a hold of George I'm ordering.

Scott, you really want one too? If so, let me know.

I'm torn between the middle one or the one on the left. I'm leaning left, but I like to be differant.

John/Ron, I met George back in the late '80's when I had the Bensen. He is or was a PRA chapter 13 member. Last name is Hammond or Hammick ? Maybe someone knows his phone #. Hope this helps.

I got one with my kit, It really isn't big enough, and I'm currently using mine as an ash try in my shop.
