Default Hangar dolly for heavy glider

and, you can't use the automotive units. We tried that a few years ago. Since they are designed for the large diameter car tire, they do not get under the glider tire and just squeeze it.

The Pacific Aerosport unit is modified with smaller rollers at the correct height that pick up the small glider tire.
