Hmmm.

Does anyone with Rigger Black Book could tell me how does
Roadmaster look like? Is it a BIG truck, namely, will a Westwind fit
inside one? (I bet not, but I want to be sure)

The Roadmaster is a medium-sized truck; IMHO a Westwind might fit inside,
if it isn't too wide (which we don't really know).

(Looking through the RBB ... yes ... and there would be some 300 CF cargo
space left over to boot ...

On this topic of putting one vehicle inside another .. here are my views ...

1. The load of the vehicle being carried should be considered as the maximum
for it's body class ...

2. The amount of storage space (modifying the RBB Zeppelin carrying rule)
required for the vehicle is equal to the Body times the following modifier
...

Standard (Civilian) ................ 100 CF
Security .............................. 125 CF
Military ............................... 150 CF

3. Drones space ... I am expecting an answer from Jon Szeto sometime in the
near future .. as he is condferring with Mike about what the ruling should be
...

Each drone has a storage rating... this number indicates how many cf
are required to store it...

Or have I misunderstood?

Unfortunately that information was left out of the R2 ... that is why I am
waiting for a response from Szeto ... then I'm gonna post it to the group,
unless he beats me to the punch ... which I kind of hope he does ...
