Glider Maintenance - Fuselage Rotisserie

Yes, usually using either a sling or rope. Simple lifts are sometimes a rope loop (laid flat, so 2 runs of rope in the middle and loops on each end) that pick up the fuselage pins. The loops on the ends are on the fuse pins, the middle goes in the hoist hook.

For Schweitzer ships, we have a large stand (similar to a horse) with a hole in it parallel to the ground that picks up the glider front grab handle (2-33) or an adapter attached to the front bulkhead (nosecone removed, 1-26, 1-34, etc) so the fuselage can rotate on the front end and the tail boom on a smaller stand.
