Flight Pods are vehicles from the G.I. Joe portion of the Generation 1 continuity family.

Flight Pods, also known as "Trouble Bubbles", are floating one-man vehicles used by Cobra. The pods, which are little more than flying chairs with windshields, are very maneuverable and are generally used for patrolling and recon missions. However, Cobra Commander is hardly one to skimp on weaponry, and all Flight Pods carry machine guns, missiles and air mines just in case they run into G.I. Joe.
