I would like to pick the brains of the clever forum folks for a good way to transport painted wings to the airport. They ain't painted yet but will be in about a month and I need something practical to do while paint dries.
Fuselage will go on a roll-up recovery truck but I can't visualize the wings load-bindered down to the deck sandwiched between mattresses. I have a timber-floor 6x10 trailer but don't have the engineering know-how to draw up the jig that would support the wings in a secure manner.
I would imagine a collar of some sort which would secure the spar extensions, extended forward over the neck of the trailer. Airport is 30 miles away over good roads but I am unsure about how to support the wings.
TIA for ideas; maybe I need to be accumulating mattresses?
