Wheelchair for Air Travel
For those confined to a wheelchair, getting around onboard an aircraft can be quite challenging & usually requires assistance from one of the flight crew. Adding this element to the already frustrating flying experience can discourage users from travlling altogether. This is where the Skycare Chair wins- utilizing wheels placed under the seat rather than at the sides & a hand-operated lever system to move forward or backward. It offers independence when moving to & from the lavatory or from chair to gate.

This does seem simpler than getting a full sized wheelchair into the plane… Nice work!

what happens if the thing falls over, or a kids toy gets stuck in the wheel during an emergency, clogs up people and more people are at risk. What if it just folds to the floor in seconds, kind of like a collapsible wheelchair.

You know that the wheelchair will dip and rise when you push and pull the handle, right? That translates into extra work for the disabled person sitting in it.
