Air Transport of the GVCS or Other Construction Sets

Basics

• This page explores the methods for, and applications of, air transport of Construction Sets such as the GVCS or other OSE Construction Sets
• Not really that practical outside of disaster relief in most cases due to cost

Applications

• Essentially a Civillian "Strategic Airlift" for rapid aid via equipment for Disaster Response
• Movement of Bulky/Heavy Componets into areas with little roads/waterways for alternate transport (how to get a lifetrac, or CEB press, or full IMC to a hill, a lehicopter COULD make sense, again 1/100 odds of ever doing this, but it exists regardless
