Will it fit in a 172?

Maybe. You should remove the front and rear tires and turn
the bars to parallel the frame. It should be possible to put it in using the main doors. The baggage door may be too small. Secure it with a seat belt. wrote in message ups.com... | "I've been browsing the group awhile, but I have a question now.

Secure it with a seat belt. And put a towel or cloth over the seat to keep the chain oil off it. -- Paul Tomblin http://xcski.com/blogs/pt/ I have a longstanding agreement with tequila: I won't drink it, and it won't make me sick. -- Brian Kantor

Maybe. You should remove the front and rear tires and turn
the bars to parallel the frame. It should be possible to put it in using the main doors. The baggage door may be too small. Secure it with a seat belt. It will not fit through the baggage door. You will have to put it in through the main doors. If you want it in the baggage compartent, fold the back seat forward if possible. You may have to remove the seat. Otherwise, plan on the frame residing on the back seat.

He won't need the towel, it's probably a rental plane on lease back!!!!. Karl "Curator" N185KG
