Binder Wing Transport

Canon Linked from 1 article

The Binder Wing Transport, also called Binder Wing Glider Transport, BTW, BTW-77, or BT7 "Binder Wing", was a flying vehicle associated with the Hunters of the Outer Rim within the Grand Arena on the planet Vespaara. They consisted of two mirrored components, each sporting retractable wings, two engines, and a steering handle, connected to each other via a plasma binder beam, similar to many podracer models. The pilot dangled from underneath the hang-glider, manipulating the handles to control the direction and speed at which the glider traveled.

Hunters would utilize the gliders to fly into arenas from launch areas high above. They were highly customizable, with some variants coming equipped with astromech droid and potentially even laser cannons like the KX9.
