A bad penny always returns,
The first photo is just an overview of the ramp assembly I have covered earlier in detail.
The next photo shows a closeup of the pipe latch. It is simply a piece of black iron pipe which slides thru the tubing and rests in "U" shaped cutouts in the side frame. I lift the plane a few inches to take the load off, pull the pipe out, lower the ramps to just under the frame and reinsert the pipe before lowering it the rest of the way. The reason I do this , is because the ramps don't always lower together. Not really a problem, but it looks better if there is a crowd watching, which there usually is.
Next photo is just a closeup of the opposite side. See the latch pin just East of the ramp lip. OK class, this is a test. Which way is the trailer oriented?
OK, only one descriptive message left and I can get on with my current projects. Cheers! Floyd
