So, I've got a project fuselage on gear I need to move roughly 5 miles.
I had intended to use my AAA benefits and call a rollback tow truck and have them move it, but they (AAA) may not be allowing this sort of thing to happen anymore.
I have read where people have simply lashed their tailwheel to a truck and nice and gently, towed their aircraft a short distance.
I'm considering taking a 5' or so length of 2" square tubing, sliding that into my hitch, taking the other end, drilling a 3/8" hole and mounting it into the tailwheel bracket.
I'd need to verify the width of the tailwheel bracket, but..
5 miles. 15 mph. Should be fine.
Anyone here been down this road?
