    If you have to carry it in an enclosed truck that's to narrow to leave both wings on, you could just take one wing and the tail feathers off. End up being about 6' wide then. Overall width with wings folded should be about 7'10" - 8' 0" JImChuk

    PS If you remove just the right wing, you most likely have a 5/16" pin in the front spar, a 5/16" bolt in the rear spar, a 5/16" bolt attaching the lift strut to the fuselage, 1/4" and 3/16" bolts hold the lift strut to the wing, fuel line and wiring for lights if so equipted. Also, 3/16" bolts hold control rods to flaperons. Left wing same except also ASI pitot tube. Tail feathers, 3/16" bolts hold braces from hor. stab. to fuselage, 3/16" pins holding elevator hinges together, and two 3/16" bolts holding hor. stab. to fuselage. Perhaps trim cable if so equipted although they didn't have any from the factory.
