Default RE: Customizing a 12x6x6 foot enclosed trailer for RC planes and helis

Just a word on caution! I was working inside the trailer taking the inside plywood walls off so I could install wiring and insulation and had my trailer unhooked from my Jimmy. Since I am not heavy enough alone to tilt the trailer, I didn't put the rear leveling jacks down. I was working just past the single axle to the rear and my wife started to walk up the ramp of the trailer. Before I could say anything the trailer tipped and my wife fell back-wards and hit her hear hard enough to render her unconscious. I called 911 and we spent the rest of the day in the local trauma ER room. Thank God all the tests were negative and she will be fine. Remember when your trailer is not hooked to your towing vehicle, always lower the rear leveling jacks to prevent the trailer from tilting.
