Hello, Frans,Bud,Dave.
Thank you all for your inputs,
Bud ,some nice photo,s your trailer looks like pretty Strong, I Hope i never 
need
a trailer for recovering my Europa from a field.
I have bought my Europa mainly for local flying in the UK, it would be nice to
fly in Europe, but if i had a problem with the aircraft away from home it would
cost to much for me.
I purposely purchased a Europa as the wings could be detached and the aircraft
stored off the Field, if needs be and money became short, the Europa fills this
requirement.
However i hate all flying Tailplane's, they belong to jet fighters which can 
take
lots of G.
I want a trailer Hanger, also to load nose first as i don,t want all the weight
at the far end. (a good point about the Spats ,Frans)
My concern  was where to connect the tow line to the aircraft, to me the upper
main gear seems to be the strongest point, but i see many are using the nose 
wheel
with out any problems, so maybe i will use this point
to attach too.

Regards
Alan
