Yup, the key is to just don’t ““over-think”” it… Spent a few years, backing them into cargo aircarft… Not much room to manuver at all… However, on some aicraft, you almost could turn around inside them… :slight_smile:

Be very glad you don’t live in UK. Camper vans over here look like the cars you tow behind camper vans where YOU live.

The first time that I ever had to back a trailer of any sort or size was a short wheel base (tongue length???) trailer attached to a military Jeep, into the back of a C-130.

I didn’t know enough to over-think it… :smiley:

heck, Steve… a jeep & trailer into a C-130, you almost had enough room to turn it around… :slight_smile:

Amen to that! You should try it into a Caribou (C-7)

ahhhh, Caribou’s were great gliders, they modified with engines… with a 120 knot headwind, the C-7 was actually flying backwards… :slight_smile:

My Jeep was the last little bit of cargo loaded into that Herc. I needed some K-Y Jelly to fit into the bay. Then came what seemed like a company of Marines.

I lost all of my Deuce gear when they disembarked. I should have stayed awake, I guess.
