Default RE: Transporting in a pickup bed

Thats a interesting video on air flow, now I know I'm going to build a modual for my planes. It's not that hard to do. A slide in modual made of 1x2 fir frame and panneled with 1/4 in. luane ? plywood then fiber glassed and painted will make a light weight unit thats easy to slide in and out. Make it long enough to meet the end of tail gate when it's down and cab high and it should meet most needs. Don't forget a back door or hatch.

This problem is why so many in our club flies 40 size planes, you can get them in most cars and truck cabs. If you want bigger without the expence ??? than a modual is the answer. Just one guys view.

" Hey" go bigger and make a modual, and have fun, fly safe, Leroy
