|
|
Having finally finished the construction (but not the paperwork!) of my Mono
XS 912S I am preparing my trailer for holding my pride and joy.
I bought the very last Mono enclosed four wheel trailer made by David
Schofield which had no fittings on the inside. I don't really want to
reinvent the wheel regarding fuselage and wing fittings so I would be
grateful if there is someone who has one of these trailers fitted out who I
could talk to. I am particularly nervous about holding the fuselage, having
already had one accident with the thing ending up on its side! Fortunately,
not too much damage done to the aircraft but I still have the mental scars!
I understand I need to keep enough weight on the tow hitch to give good
towing, which indicates putting the fuselage in nose first, but most of the
pictures I have seen show a tail first configuration. Help!

Hi Brian,
I sorted out my Schofield stowage before commencing painting last year.
I am using wing & fus dollies made by Roger Huttlestone
(rhuttlestone(at)freenetname.co.uk) and am very pleased with them.
You are welcome to come & inspect (West Sussex), or give me a ring to
discus. (01444882062)
Brgds,
Roger

I also have a Schofield trailer with an early rigging kit from Roger
Huttlestone. I can recommend both and the latest rigging kit from Roger
is really good, I borrowed one last year, greatly improved over my early
example.
