The fuselage and wings fit nicely,we have done this several times both in a cradle and with the undercarriage fitted. As it happens here's a picture of us moving it from St Albans around 2007....

Hi folks, my bird is due for a full set, and I was debating whether to go for the factory hoses or the blue silicone hoses I've seen advertised and mentioned in the past on the list. are these still available? And if they are, do folks have some reviews on their longevity etc? Cheers and thanks, Pete C-GNPZ classic ________________________________ Message 3 _____________________________________ Time: 09:29:53 AM PST US Subject: Europa-List: Re: silicone classic hose set - reviews and availability? From: "JonathanMilbank" Before I converted my aircraft from Classic to "Nev Eyre" firewall forward, six years ago, I had a full silicone set from the Swedish? guy and they were excellent! When I did the conversion, I bought the appropriate replacement hoses and they're also superb. But don't do like a friend of mine and let a silicone hose clad in reflective fire-sleeve touch the silencer, because it did eventually burn through and leak. One word of warning. Use good quality jubilee clips, which have both edges angled a little away from the hose surface to avoid cutting into the silicone. "Cheepo" hose clips are a definite no-no! Also good are the clips which you open wider with vice grips to slide over the hoses before releasing the grips, once each clip is in the desired position. I don't know whether the Swedish? guy still advertises in the club magazine. I believe that rubber hoses should be changed very 5 years, while silicone ones should last at least 10.
