'I have lost my hangar at OKH and have a new on at BVS, the engine is off the 24, so I must remove the wings and horizontal so that it can be trailered and taken to BVS.
should I just sell it as parts, take the loss and run. ?'

'Tom: I did a quick check, and for WA, a permit for overwidth loads is only 10$ plus 7 cents a mile. Take the wings off and leave the tail on and do the permit. You might have to have an escort and run between certain hours, but it would cut down on the work to move it.

'Tom,
Last year we moved a PT-19 by truck (proper permits, no escort required). It was daylight hours only. I think 30 minutes after sunrise to 30 minutes before sunset and the route has to be approved by DOT. We traveled through three states. Permitting in two of them took a couple of hours, and the third took 2 1/2 days.
Check the outside dimensions on your horizontal stabilizers. It only took a few extra minutes to remove them, so we did. I don't know if the gear width on the F24 is the same as the PT, we did have to fab a cradle out of 4x4s for the gear to ride on. If you want, you can send me a PM at jsharpsmail@yahoo.com and I'll be as helpful as I can.

'Just for reference, probably not needed for this trip but you can get 24 fuselage into a standard tractor

temporary "shocks" get installed to pinch the wheels inboard. We used angle iron pieces in place of
the gear as temporary shocks and the plane was transported most of the way across Canada no sweat.

'Some years ago, we towed a Stinson SR-9 Gullwing from Iowa to New Jersey on it's own gear behind a Chevy Suburban. No permits. Jack it up, pull the wheels, remove the brake assemblies and put the wheels back on. We winched the gear in to 11'6" to clear the toll booths which are 12 foot. we put a set of trailer lights on a board, wired tied it to the engine, ran the wires through the fuselage and out the tailwheel opening to the truck plug. We took the tailwheel out of the yoke and fabricated an articulating hitch that the tailwheel yoke bolted to. off we went.

Re: Should I part it out?
'Tom;
Hopefully with the encouragement and a little bit of help we can get you settled in BVS. You helped us several years ago with the cast aluminum foot pegs for our C8E gear legs and it sounds like you could use a hand now. I'm just north of you in White Rock, BC and only a couple of hours away. We can relocate your "24" to Skagit. We've moved two C8Es to BC by road, one from California, the other from Pennsylvania, and a Murphy Rebel from Squamish to Pitt Meadows so 30 miles should be a breeze. We've probably got help at the Skagit end as well so let me know what and when you need it.
