Tomorrow I have a sliding deck car mover coming to move my RV9A from the home shop to the new hanger. Its a short 15 minute highway haul. Searching thru other posts and pictures, I see lots of aircraft riding to their destination after being loaded but not many details on how to tug the aircraft onto the deck.
Do I attach slings to all three gear or just to the two mains and let the nose wheel find its way?
Whats the best point to attach, right where the main gear bends and turns into the axle or up the leg somewhere. I have left the brakes off to avoid damage if this is where I pull from.
Any advice on this task is appreciated.
Thanks
