I bought my Avion in The Dalles, Oregon and moved it to the SF Bay Area,
Fremont. I hired the back haul of a slant trailer (normally used to haul
cars) hooked behind a dually. The only issue was getting it loaded as it was
not able to run at the time. We used a snatch block at 90 degrees, pulled by
the cable winch of a tow truck. Easy peasey.

The back haul cost me $1000. Great bargain, but then again, I am the
resourceful Norseman.



Dean C. Hanson 1975 Avion, just getting a newly overhauled carb.

P.O.Box 2096

Fremont, Ca. 94536

(510) 657-9600

"resourceful". Is that similar to "frugal", or "tight", or "stingy"? :-)
