Frank - If I picture what you are describing, the glider is rolled onto

We used these for many years for hangar packing too. The whole thjng
was steel and the handles were around 12 feet. The main wheel sat in a
ring. There were many trailing edge dings to the wings over the years
fro

the handles so we switched to main wheel dollies.

I saw one of them when I was at Portmoak in September, can't remember
exactly where but probably around the original hangar.
