== Description ==
 
The '''Pegasus Passenger VTOL''' is a Civilian Support VTOL used for mass transit systems between cities and other population centers on planets. Developed by Blackstone BattleMechs of [[Inarcs]], its recreation was a result of the company trying to diversifying its production lines beyond producing [[Battlemech]]s. The vehicle was intended to act as an airborne link to other cities and urbanized settings that may not have existing airfields.<ref name="TRO:VAp76"/><ref name="TRO:VArp78"/>

The Pegasus first served as "Yellow Taxi" on [[New Exford]] in the [[Lyran Alliance]], and the first production run was sold out by [[3067]]. The vehicle was used to link dense cities of the planet with the company's bright yellow Pegasus VTOLs.<ref name="TRO:VAp76"/><ref name="TRO:VArp78"/>

Designed for fast and safe transportations of up to a hundred passengers, the Pegasus has an electric [[fuel cell]] engine. The hybrid electric motor allows the Pegasus to reach 120 km/h and travel as far as 2,000 km before refueling. The vehicle aside from its passengers, has a 5 ton cargo bay (2 doors per left /right side) move passengers' luggage or material goods. The vehicle had virtually no armor, with minimum structural protection should any military type weaponry is used against it.<ref name="TRO:VAp76"/><ref name="TRO:VArp78"/>
