One wing (left on the right) and the other, right on the left, confusing isn't it?

More Straps added for safety

Looks longer than a normal 4-seater.  The trailer is 10' to the end and the firewall is again the front. 

Wings are 12 feet or so

Registration N488AA

Flight surfaces strapped in bed, top piece is the vert stab (looks familiar)

Parking it at sunset in the hangar.

Fowler flaps! (How Cessna, but effective)

Forward wing attach, no SPAR!

Now appearing as a DC-9 for American Airlines

Does this glove box and position look familiar? (Box in great shape)

Horizontal stab and other bits laid out (elevator in fuselage)
