Wings safely at the Aero Club

We’re building in a large (by Boston standards) one-car garage, so we had to move the wings out to make room for the fuselage. Today was the day we rented a large U-Haul truck to make the move to our storage space (and eventual building location) at Hanscom Field (KBED). I’d already moved the empennage out there earlier this year, so bit by bit the airplane is making its way to the airport. Ellen is holding the cradle in place while I take one last picture of the wings at the house.

The wings in the truck. That cradle is pretty solid, but we didn’t want anything shifting around during the 11-mile drive to the airport. So everything is tied and chocked securely.

The trip was a non-event, and we got the wings safely to the hangar. Cool!

The shop is empty, but not for long. After a little cleanup and rearranging, I’ll continue on with the fuselage.
