Always transport your plane with the nose facing forward in your pickup and as close to the front of the bed as possible. A few years ago a friend of mine showed up at the field with his Cub and a couple others in the back of his truck with the back ends facing the front. All three had the back ends completely busted off. He was really hot!. On his way to the field he had to avoid an accident by slamming on the brakes and those planes went sailing into the front of the bed .

It has happened from time to time here when a guy will show up with his plane -not in the same condition he loaded it up in when he left his house. Traffic lights also cause damage by hitting the brakes on one of those bad lights where you wanted to go through it but didn't. Careful on the bungie cord thing. Consider long strips of velcro. The stretch of the Bungie may cause damage
