    Maybe you could find a place on a flatbed.

    You never said if you pull your own trailer or not. I could easily put something like that under my flatbed.

    I don't have a truck...yet. Just graduated CDL school yesterday, and hope to start driving within a couple weeks. But I'm thinking about the future and how I can arrange a situation that works for me. I like to participate in hang gliding competitions around the US. If I have the freedom to drive where I want and can carry my gear then maybe I can hit a few comps and new flying sites in between runs.

    So it will be at least a year or two before I'd be carrying the glider. Maybe I should just ask a DOT rep about what would be legal. In the meantime, the ideas are appreciated :)
