There is a picture on the RPA website of a CJ with a pair of droptank-like containers mounted under the wings. From the address attached to the photo I'm assuming it's a Kiwi-based machine and I was wondering if anyone out there has any further info on them. I'm not interested in them as fuel tanks (though the option wouldn't be bad) but rather as cargo space as the area I have behind the rear seat gets filled up rather quickly.. especially at Oshkosh! Thanks!

You might be better advised to install one of the "Yakity" type "condo" baggage compartments as in Batman's (Hal Morley) new CJ6. Hal was heard to say that after the flush potty and air stair door were installed he was thinking about renting it out during OSH 09. Contact Hal, he might have some photos.
