Transporting covered wings off the airplane ??

I guess my previous post answering this got lost in the updates. 2" PVC is 2" ID, about 2 1/2" OD. Kitfox spars are 2 1/2' OD, with .065" wall thickness, so Spar ID is about 2 3/8" Then you have the doublers where the wing pins go though the butt end of the wing spars so that reduces it further. Spar spacing is 27 1/2" center to center. JImChuk

You can also build a "box" to place the wings in...I can supply you with far better photos (they are home on my computer) but you can see in this photo behind me was my wing box....supports were cut to the form of the rib and leading edge, with new dense carpet padding.

I built these for a friend hauling a Pietenpol in a U-haul truck. 2 X 6s to set the leading edge on, 2 X 4s for the frame and 2 X 2s to attach it all to the inside of the truck. Slanted to make room for the pieto tube. Old Forest Service firefighter sleeping pads to cushion the wings.
