Over Pond - Pacific Ocean

[Ernie Martin]

I'm not so sure, given what we now know about safely separating the wings from the fuselage.

I think that disassembling, crating, shipping, and re-assembling a Skymaster is likely to cost somewhere between:

a) the cost of the wing-fuselage attach point SID, and

b) the cost of all the SIDs.

I don't know the numbers, but my instant impression is that it may be close, perhaps cheaper to fly it, especially if the proper steps are taken at the disassembly and reassembly to ensure that no damage is done to the wing-fuselage attachments.
