A friend has recently updated his C210's avionics with a largely Garmin
panel. Among the things removed was a King RDS81 weather radar. I've found a
buyer in Florida, and have to figure out how to get it there from Oregon, as
safely as possible. We don't have to ship the pod, just the
receiver/transmitter and display. The R/T is probably 12" x 12", and weighs
about 15 lbs.

Any ideas?

I talked with our local Bendix/King Dealer in Troutdale, and he says
that he uses a box from Honeywell for about $50. He did not say how to get
one or who to talk to.

On a related note, if anyone needs a radar pod for a 210, I know where
you can get one for a nominal fee. It might make a good external/drop tank
for a homebuilt. It is about 13-14" in diameter, about 3' long, and has a
removable nose cone.
