just drive out. G


So, build a steel frame which supports the wheels of the plane. Put that frame on
wheels. Use a garage door opener to move it in and out of the hangar.

You can put a small winch at the back of the hangar to pull
you in, but yes, you must get out to attach it.

Shortly after I first got my ticket, I took my wife and kids to see family
in a 172. At the other airport, we were told to back up to a fence. So, I
shut down and pushed the plane into place.

My wife was furious about something as we walked thru the terminal to meet
family...finally she blurts out "I've never been so embarassed in my life!
I'm not going anywhere with you again until you learn to use the reverse."
