plane needs a ride
I almost got a plane sold to a guy in Georgia, and I live in NY. The plane is assembled and takes up a lot of room.
I can't seem to find anyone reasonable to ship it. Any suggestions?
Anyone going from NY to Georgia anytime soon?

RE: plane needs a ride
Need more info. Make and model of plane? wing span? one piece or two? Tried Greyhound? You may have to improvise a box. Lots of cardboard and strong packing tape. Check your local furniture store for boxes.

Try Foward Air, they ship from airport to airport. I had a large jet shipped to me from New Jersey to Seattle and it was only about $150. It was in a box 8 feet long by 2 feet square or so. They are about the cheapest method I've seen.

RE: plane needs a ride
it's going to be expensive no matter what method you use since the wing is not removable. I would suggest forward air, but you'll need to build a strong crate. I'm sure that any other carrier will require you to ship freight which is ridiculously expensive. I believe forward air's site is just simply www.forwardair.com I know many people that have used them without issue, myself included.
