Brief Description: The Big Move 1 - Fuselage

Today was a huge milestone as we moved the fuselage from my garage to its new home - Haverfordwest Airfield (EGFE). We moved it into the drive to put on the tail spring and tail wheel and the prop on. Members of my shift from the Murco Oil Refinery plus my neighbour from the Valero Refinery helped with the push. Yes a push. I felt this was the least risky option and it was 1.5 miles and took us 40 minutes. Thanks chaps! More photos >
