Re: Fuselage height/width
Hi Jim,
First off, congrats on getting your kit!
A couple photos attached. first one of the box with my 5' 10" friend standing next to it - don't think the whole box would fit in your van???
Second photo shows the airframe sitting in the box - the plywood on the side of the box is 4' so it looks like the front end is less than the 50" tall..... the tail is taller - don't have an exact measurement but looks like taller than the 50". The frame is pretty light but the tail (which is really light) sticking out the back of the van shouldn't be a balance problem. Max width has to be less than the 51"
Hope that helps a little.

Re: Fuselage height/width
looks like 42" tall and 42" wide at largest points (not counting tail). I think empty weight is about 80 lbs. this is for the model SS. good luck and congrats. ken

Earlier this year John McBean told me:-
'Typically the crate is 48w x 204l x 84t and approximately 1700 lbs.'
Hope this helps,
Good luck with the kit.
