I was some kind insecure about the cockpit would stick out of the frame. I had plans to make a wood crate... May you let me know about you used an HIGH Cube container ? I was thinking little bit about its was possible to send the a/c vertical. If i'm using an high cube container.... http://www.export911.com/e911/ship/dimen.htm Make a frame on the ground and rise frame vertical. I understand the width between stubs is 100 inches ... May anyone confirm this measurement ? I'm not close to my aircraft now. Shipping will be done from Florida to Norway. All help welcome!
