From: Ed Kranz My (SB) wing kit is sitting at the local FedEx terminal, and I'm wondering if I need a trailer to pick it up. I know the longest crate is a tad over 14' long... which is right at the edge what I'm comfortable hauling in the back of a pickup with an 8' box. Has anyone else picked up their wings in a pickup? Or should I try to scrounge up a trailer? ________________________________ Message 3 _____________________________________ Time: 06:39:04 AM PST US From: "Tom Hanaway" Subject: RE: RV10-List: Re: Nose Gear Insert tool Frank, Did you receive the helicoil insert package I sent?

Hey Ed, I=99ve carried both quick build wings from Ohio to South Carolina in the back of my F-150 (7=99 bed, with tail gate down 9=99) with no problem. But that was with the spar (heavy end) forward. The SB kit in the box would be different, but I don=99t see why it couldn=99t be done. COG, wt. and balance, etc. ... piece of cake! Getting it in and out though, would take a few hands and strong backs. A flat bed trailer and dolly=99s would be easier if you have access to them.

From: Rick Lark Ed, I picked mine up in my full size Chev pickup, used tie down sraps to keep everything secure, crossed the US Canada border, and had no issues. Also drove approx 3 hours from the Port Huron MI, Fed Ex terminal to home. Very do-able. I remember putting the the longest box on top. Go for it........
