Hi Europaphiles,

I normally keep my plane at a hangar at  my local airport and bring it 
home on occasion for inspections and routine maintenance. I  have a 
question for those of you who routinely use a road trailer to transport 
your Europa.

What method have you used to eliminate/reduce chafing of the wing paint 
where the wings are supported in the swinging cradles ? My factory made 
trailer has the wing supports made out of a firm foam rubber with a tape 
facing. I find that after a few trips, I have developed some chafe marks.

Thanks for your help.

Cheers, John
