 |
|
Hi Group
We moved our XS Mono on the factory trailer for the first time.
It didn't have the front cowl or glass installed.
On the swing up ramp, our trailer has holes for a tie down.
We looped a ratchet tie down up and over the fuse just below the windscreen.
That tie down stayed in place only a short time. Since we didn't have the glass installed we went up and over the ceiling.
Question, when trailering a Mono XS with cowl and glass installed, how do you hold the front of the plane down, if at all?
Thx.
Ron P.

Good afternoon Ron, I put a small ratchet strap over the mainwheel with a plywood shim each side of the tire keeping it centered and snug.
I also found a ramp extension was required to load the aircraft otherwise the flaps would contact the trailer.
Best regards, Dwayne
PS Bud put out a very useful video regarding the mono trailer
