Default Ladder Comparison

Interesting photo comparison of "lucky 8" rear ladder vs "voyager" mounted to Voyager roof rack.

My personal opinion is easy climb for the L8 but more control on the V.

Using both, multiple options for safe use.

Recall, SF training always have 3 points contact to surface climbing, crawling, egressing or what ever I cannot talk about nor divulge.

Yes, the V is closer to the rail than the Front runner, so I paired with a custom fabricator to construct, and excellent outcome. Spec available for mod and possible construct. Jon

Why does that Defender have two ladders on it? And, yeah, I'm sure the concept of "3-points of Contact" is super secret. I can see from your license plate that you'd rather fly below the radar than draw attention to yourself.

Sure,
doing and seeing and getting old, at some point you just don't give a crap, and enjoy the diversity of the world, recalling the over used phrase, "@#$% storm" ...

Two ladders, an SVR badge AND snake-on-a-plate. Wow
