8.4.7 ROAD TRANSPORT
For transporting the airplane on the road it is recommended that an open trailer be used.
All airplane components must be stored on a cushioned surface and secured to avoid
any movement during transportation.
NOTE
Disassembling and Assembling of the airplane is a
maintenance action and requires qualified personel.
1. Fuselage:
The fuselage should stand on the main and nose landing gear. It must be ensured that
the fuselage will not move in any direction. Furthermore, it must be ensured that the
propeller has sufficient clearance so that it cannot be damaged due to fuselage movement
during transportation.
2. Wings:
For transportation, both wings must be removed from the fuselage. To avoid any damage,
the wings must be stored in an upright position on the leading edge with the root rib area
positioned on an upholstered profiled surface with a width of at least 400 mm (1.3 ft). The
outside wing area (approximately 3 m (10 ft) from the root rib area) must be placed on
an upholstered profiled surface with a minimum width of 300 mm (1 ft).
The wings must be secured to avoid any sliding movement to the rear.
3. Horizontal Stabilizer:
The horizontal stabilizer must be stored flat on the trailer and secured with straps, or in
an upright position sitting on the leading edge on a profiled surface. All storing surfaces
must be upholstered with felt or cellular rubber.
