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.
