Questions for this shipment: 

Question: i have a 42 foot enclosed trailer, with 9 foot interior height ? would that work, ? (6/26/2007)
Response: No Sir I'm sorry as the tail even at ground level is to tall. Thank you for your reply. Regards, Greg (6/28/2007)
Question: When will the load be ready, and going into FL right now for anyone, is expensive because there are not too many individual loads coming out of FL. I am currently checking to see if I can get the truck loaded on the return trip, and will be able to calculate a price. 1k is super unreasonable! Will try to assist you if at all possible though. God Bless, Curtes-Owner, Lightning Fast Delivery Svcs (6/28/2007)
Response: Thank you for your reply. The load is ready now. I need only to arrange assistance or fly up myself from FL. Regards, Greg (6/28/2007)
Response: We would like to assist you in this shipment, can you help me in the pricing arena that you seek, in order to try to see if we can make adjustments to accomodate. We are ready to assist, just need to get an understanding on the dollar amount. (6/28/2007)
Question: The main objective is to assist you with your shipment in the most safest, legal, and secure way. Would 3200$ help you? What is the value of the aircraft? Surely you would like the cheapest reasonable price, but I offer a relatively fair price to ensure that your property does not just go on the back of any trailer. We offer a reasonable price, guaranteed shipping, all inclusive, with no hidden fees. 3200 is the best pricing that we can offer to you at this time. Should this not be acceptable, we would welcome the thought of you utilizing our services in the future for other projects. God Bless, Curtes- Owner, Lightning Fast Delivery Svcs (6/28/2007)
Response: Thank you Curtis I have a fellow who has a 40 gooseneck at $1700. I'm sorry and understand that you have a bottom dollar per mile and I thank you for your time and efforts. Regards, Greg (6/28/2007)
Response: No problem, if I hit the LOTTO, I will keep you in mind. LOL Curtes (6/28/2007)
Question: See the listing still posted. Just checking back to see if you have the shipment serviced as of yet? Please reply so that I can get a truck readily available upon conversation and possible aggreement. Curtes (7/2/2007)
Question: Do you really think I am to high?? We are licensed, insured and its not a short hop and a skip down there. The price problem is there isn't much freight coming out of Fla today so we can't get much of a return haul to offset "deadhead" costs. Plus my guys want to get paid for driving ( they are so self centered). Chuck (7/6/2007)
Question: 40 ft flatbed trailer. I specifically haul Helicopters, fixed wing, and aircraft parts. We are licenced and Insured for up to $1 million. I charge per mile, and 1100 miles will be $2970. Plenty of photos and referals available. -Mountain Man Helicopter Hauling (7/6/2007)
Question: If you can get the aircraft put together I could obtain a ferry permit from the FAA and ferry it for you rate would be $750.00 + Expenses. (7/9/2007)
Question: Still looking to get this done? I will be coming back to Fl. 1st part of Aug, and looking for a load. Can do $1800.00, let me know, thanks. Pls check out my ref's / pic's. (7/14/2007)
Response: Hello I still need this plane moved. Are you available? (9/4/2007)
Response: Hi Greg, I'd love to help you with this. I will need to see if I can find a load(not an easy task out of this region)to bring north before I will be able to give you a price. I coundn't come close to the bid I initially gave you unless I can get a nice paying gig toward you. I hope you understand that it could take a little doing to find something. I will let you know. Otherwise, I would be willing to come get you if its something that has to be done quickly for $2500.00. Tell me what your thoughts are and I'll go whatever direction you say. Thanks, Tom Purdy. (9/5/2007)
Response: I understand! I have bids on the phone at almost $2000 already. Let me know if you can find a load? Regards, Greg (9/5/2007)
Response: I will start looking to see whats out there and get back to you. I won't place a bid until we speak again and have a possible agreement. Thanks. (9/5/2007)
Question: let me see if i can get a trailer and i can do it for the 1550 thanks what is the height of the tail with plane setting on the ground is that the 120 inchs thanks (9/4/2007)
Response: Hello Thank you for your reply. Yes, 120 inches is with the plane on the ground. We will put the nose up and bring the tail down if needed for clearance. (9/4/2007)
Question: sir great looking plane i would like to help with this if possible, but there is a few things that i would like to ask. Are the instruments still in the airplane? Are the flight surfaces going to be secured? How are we to load it? would you let us transport with landing gear up if supported the entire length? I could go on forever on this as i am a charter pilot on weekends and holidays. I hope this helps i wished that we could talk but uship rules say that we cant give contact info. (9/4/2007)
Response: Hello and thank you for your reply. The plane can sit on the trailer with its own gear. If the tail is too high we will raise the nose to bring it down. The wing is removed and will be secured. The engines and props will not be included. I have moved many planes and will load and unlosd myself. Regards, Greg (9/5/2007)
Question: I will be in Cleveland on Sept 18. I can pick up the plane anytime after. I am based in Tennessee and have trucks in Port Charlotte, Fl to bring back home.I do need a declared value for insurance reasons. $1600 flat rate. Thanks Ron@ R&J Trucking (9/6/2007)
Response: Hello Ron Thank you for your reply. The aircraft was donated to our museum and has a value of around $25,000. If you can commit to your price the job is yours cash 50/50. Regards, Greg (9/6/2007)
Response: Done Deal! I will place my bid now. I carry cargo insurance to $25000 at no cost to the customer. Higher values at the actual cost to me. Thanks Ron@R&J Trucking (9/6/2007)
