BigM 2 #1 April 6, 2005 I have ordered a Pelican 1650 for my Flat Top Pro. I was wondering if anyone that is using this (or a similar case) for their Flat Top has any pictures of their helmet in the case. I am trying to figure out which would be the best way to cut out the foam to provide the most secure & protective lodging for my helmet. Many thanks in advance.

mr2mk1g 10 #2 April 6, 2005 You might already have seen it, but BlueSBDeath posted this pick in a thread last week: http://www.dropzone.com/cgi-bin/forum/gforum.cgi?do=post_attachment;postatt_id=42915;... not an ftp but certainly some inspiration.

I was looking for something more specific to the Flat Top, where as that is a side mount helmet. The set up could be a good bit different.

Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites BigM 2 #7 April 7, 2005 An FTP with a SIDE mount? I don't think I've ever seen that! I dropped Bonehead an e-mail before I purchased to see what size they recommended. They said inside dimensions of 29x18x10 inches. The 1650 is listed as 29x17 7/8x10 1/2, so I should hope that it fits ok. "When I die, I want to go like my grandmother, who died peacefully in her sleep.
