Listers,

     Thank you very much for your advice on transporting my airplane.  Sounds like some of you have some good experience with this.  I am going to have to give it some more thought.  An enclosed car trailer would be the perfect slution but may be cost prohibitive.  I will give it more thought.  I have heard of a special brace that is required to support the front spar while transporting.  Apparently there is a large amount of extra strees on the aft spar joint when the aircraft is subjected to road motion.  Any ideas where I would locate a pair of these?

    

   Thank so much for the advice.  I'd hate to damage the aircraft due to my ignorance.

    

   Cheers,

    

   Rique

John McBean may be able to supply them. I built my own, based on what  

I saw on a Kitfox on a trailer in a nearby hangar. They extend from  

the front spar down to one of the float brackets, below the lower  

longeron.
