RE: Plane Carrier
My brother designed and built the carrier for me. I don't have exact dimensions. I'll measure it this weekend and try to get a few more photos. The bottom frame is just under 6.5 feet by about 2 feet. The uprights for the wings are even with the top of the bed sides of a 2000 Silverado. I have a fiberglass bed lid so it doesn't get blown around at all. It's all 3/4" pvc for stiffness. I drag it about halfway out and lower the end to the ground. Then I drag it wherever it needs to go by the other end. I never need to move it more than 20-30 feet so I never felt wheels were necessary; and the frame itself makes a good handle. The wings have a bungee across both ends so they will not slide off if I have to stop quickly. The fuselge is also secured with little bungees. I can grab the frame on either side, near the center, and carry it like a suitcase if I need to. This is the only other photo I have. The PT-60 is my current trainer. The carrier is in the background near my truck.
