Maybe there should have been a tongue in cheek smiley at the end of that
question to Jim, Chuck? You are aware he has long been flying his Velo?

Jim,

 

Good photo.  I could see the sails in the back ground but didn't see the
keel with the lead ballast..no oar locks either-guess you aren't that far
along in the plans?

Robin,

 

Attached is a picture of my cradle that served me fine.  It was made of 2" x
4"s & plywood on 4 large casters so it could be easily moved.  Notice the 4
camper leveling screw jacks at the corners that allowed quick and easy
leveling.  Once you use the jacks (I used a digital level) you learn just
how many turns per degree of level are required.

Can anyone point me toward pictures of some of the best designed fuselage
cradles?  I know there have been pictures of them, but for some reason I
can't find them now...

Thanks,

Robin
