Here are some tips from builder's on how to move your fuselage after the spar has been installed. These are by builder's who mostly built jigs to move their airplanes themselves, but I do want to put in a plug for Roger Cummins of Three Feathers (937-533-6111), he moved my airplane from the house to the airport, and picked us up again when we had our little incident in Otisco.

Here's a shot of Roger picking us up to go to the airport.

Before installing the spar, the kit is pretty easy to move. Velocity packed ours in a Ryder truck, and Elizabeth brought 44 Victor Foxx home Cincinnati herself (she's a trooper).

I don't recall who's move this is, if you contact me I'll attribute this properly, and I'd like to include some details here as well!


Here are some google sketch-ups from Erik Frank's blog, he's trying to buy Bob Santom's Velocity and move it to Austin.
