If the carpet trick isn't a hoax, I'd like to see photos!


I imagine the usage is similar to the blanket technique described by
KS a while ago, i.e. the wing tip is on the ground on the carpet and
the fuselage is rolled so the spar box lines up with the raised wing
spar. Then slide the wing on the carpet to insert the spar.

I'd hate to see the inventive caveman's effort go to waste and prefer
to use wheels.
