To the Airport!!

There go the wings... ...to the airport. Better than outside...barely. Some time later, the fuselage sees the same fate...
If you ever wondered how to load an airplane on a trailer, you're in for a treat. Just look at the following series of pictures. Don't make fun, this actually worked REALLY well. Nosewheel up, and we're halfway there... Now we have to go "up and over" the fenders...
...so we did. Look. Three tails, all unbroken. (Well, there might be a couple cracks.) There she goes. Unload in reverse order. Yes, I am holding nose wheel off the ground with my bare hands, and yes, I do have abs of steel. (ok, maybe not steel)
