This is a weekly posting with GURPS vehicles (and the like) to the 
GURPSnet mailing list. I grant the permission for all non-commercial 
redistribution of my work, but I would like to know if you put it on 
a website or the like. The files at omeyer.gmxhome.de are down until 
I fix the automatic PDF generation, which should be one of these 
days - see sourceforge.net/projects/gurpsml

General Products LP18 Grav Plow v1.0 (GURPS Traveller TL10)
  Copyright 2009 by Onno Meyer

  The LP18 Grav Plow is actually a contragrav rotary tiller, but on most 
worlds in known space nobody makes such technical distinctions. The LP18 
consists of an open seat mounted on top of the narrow engine pack and an 
18' axle with rotating tines. By flying, the agricultural machine avoids 
soil compaction and simplifies maneuvering at the edge of the fields. A 
simple avionics package helps the operator to keep a tight pattern.
