New parts arrived today!

I thought that this was going to be everything arriving today, as it was shipped as a 255 lbs 4x8 palette. However, I think it was closer to a 150lbs palette.  And the 2 engines came in their own separate UPS boxes today as well.  

There's still quite a few things outstanding, including the engine mounts and propellers which I can think of off the top of my head. 

Here some pictures from the delivery.

Receiving the large palette. 

The box on the lift.  Seriously I paid $145 for this 30 second operation?

A little help from my friends getting it into the trailer.  

On approach to the trailer, we weren't sure if it could go through the front. 

But it made it.

A bit of a squeeze getting through the door. 

All tucked away in the trailer before being unpacked.
