Re: about to take my wings off... any pointers

      GREETINGS,
      
      I recently finished the build on mt 701.  During the build process and the move
      to the airport, I installed and removed the wings (completely by myself) several
      times.  I built some cheap wing stands out of 2X4s to support the wings at
      the proper height next to the fuselage.
      
      Drain all the fuel first.  I recommend removing the struts from the wings.  It
      only takes about ten minutes per side.  This will make handling the wing much
      easier and less prone to damage.  Mark the struts for location for ease of assembly.
      
      If the mounting holes were drilled properly there should be little concern for
      re-rigging.  I would pull measurements from the trailing edge at the outboard
      ends to the rudder stops before removing the wings just in case there is some
      slop in the mounts.
      
      I haven't painted mine, but I don't believe a properly applied paint job will have
      a noticeable effect on the flight characteristics.
