I just uploaded a file to the "401 FlightSeeing" area and wonder if
this is a common technique?

Yes VERY common John....except we never bother with being followed by two
fire trucks! :O)

Also done with just a 4 wheel dolly...but steering can get interesting until
you have rudder authority and there usually ends up being some broken runway
lights after the dolly goes nuts after lift off. Also knew of a Beaver that
got landed back onto a trailer every fall on a 5000 ' local strip.

Speaking of Beavers, I seem to recall a story about the dolly
demolishing the boss's new car at DHC the first time it was used.
It had a brake on it for the next launch!

Thanks Wayne,

You guys are having way too much fun. I've got to pull rivets faster
so I can come play.
