AEROPOD

About the Book

In this novel, Flynn Enterprises creates another revolutionary vehicle, a multi-purpose, personal Turbopod called an Aeropod. Based upon the global success of both the Turbopod (T-Pod) and Aerobelt (A-Belt) products to change global transportation forever, the son of the founder decides a new, more personal, more capable multi-craft is needed. The company develops the Aeropod (A-Pod) to serve personal transportation needs, public safety and military missions. This book serves as a primer on the process of designing, building, and testing a very smart vehicle capable of services on land, on water and in the air. The test program is exhaustive to ensure a safe product capable of global utility. Once the A-Pod is introduced, the military quickly grasps the multi-mission capabilities and funds the development of a very lethal personal jet/helicopter without the blades. The second half of the book applies the A-Pod to representative missions, usually to save people or thwart terrorist activities. In a celebration of mass production, the company uses a NASCAR track to demonstrate the A-Pod in all four venues-helicopter, jet plane, speedboat and Indi-style racer. The book ends with a salute to the parents who made it possible and a challenge for the reader to develop more ways to use an A-Pod to serve humanity.
