I read that VAF thread and sent him an e-mail. He certainly comes highly recommended in the Vans community. The buyer and myself are both strongly wanting to get this done safely. I will be here to help load and secure the Kolb when it leaves, but having a transporter who gives a s*** about it while it's on the road is definitely worth the trouble to find if we can afford it. The first thing I tried to do was get one of my friends in the local ultralight community to trailer it for us, but his old marginal vehicle cannot make the trip. I cannot take it to him myself, and he cannot get time off work to come get it. I have no personal experience with these guys, but they transport a lot of Van's Aircraft quickbuild kits, without crating. https://freefreightsearch.com/brokers/14306-partain-trading-company-inc-dba-partain-transport-company One thread on the Van's Airforce ________________________________ Message 2 _____________________________________ Time: 07:30:26 AM PST US From: Pfatchantz Subject: Re: Kolb-List: Re: Long Distance Trailering Dollar a mile is a nice number if you can get it..

I think the main thing is that after it is loaded the trailer is not opened until it arrives at the destination. Loading and off loading additional items along the way can cause problems. When I moved from Ohio to Missouri I rented a U-Haul and also removed the wings and supported everything on 6" upholstery foam that I bought at a fabric store. No Problems.
