no sooner have I got my -10 registered and flying in UK than I want to move it to South Africa
Measuring the length from the engine (prop off) to the rudder bulkhead (tail Feathers off) seems just over 20' so it appears it won't fit in a 20' container. Wheels are also going to have to come off to fit across. However, I was wondering if there was enough length if one went across the diagonal from (say) rear left to front right. According to Pythagoras, that gives 21.5 feet though obviously you would lose a bit with the aircraft width. I'm away from home but seem to remember that the length was about 21' so it would be close.
Anyone done it?
