  • Travelling with my own aisle chair allows me to board the plane last (if I choose) and use the washroom independently during the flight.
    This comes in very handy when the stewardess does not allow you to use the washroom because of turbulence when in the air. (...I can't hold it)

    I've never seen anything like this and I want one!! I had the grand idea of utilizing a mechanics stool to enable me to put my fully assembled chair in the back of my suburban and then shimmy shake my way to the drivers door. Uhhh... No. lol While this isn't an end all solution for me, it sure would be easier to use than the stool.

    • @rackemwells

      When I end up eventually flying, I'll be peeing right from my seat. If they wanna land early and kick me off the plane, whatever. I'll obviously make valiant effort to cover up but I'm sure they still won't like it.

    • @LifeinBonnieland

    I admire the clever mechanical design of that folding chair. The wheels with the side rollers are a brilliant solution for maintaining compact, light weight mobility. The folded chair appears too large to fit under the seat, I assume it fits inside the overhead bin?

  • @Gdesign959
    @Gdesign959 Před 4 lety +1

    The guy that built that does awesome work. Only issue I see is it’s very low. So when someone is wheeling you down the isle you have to get your butt up higher than what your wheelchair is because most airplane seats don’t have armrests that’s lift up. It would be very tough to go from such a low seated position to up and over the armrest of the airplane seat to then be seated on the plane.
    That is if your not the Incredible Hulk.

    I do not often use airplanes and I can be wrong. This device does not have a safety certificate and is potentially dangerous within the aircraft. How loyal are the airlines to this device? In my country, airlines do not allow their wheelchairs to be used for movement and boarding within the aircraft.

    Unstable and a waste of money.
    Just another useless product being put out there for people in wheelchairs to waste their money on.
