Europaviators......
I second Christoph's motion. Ship container (should hold several) to HFX,
assemble
locally and, after Christoph's local field, two legs to Burlington ON (I
have a transporter if needed), visit the Canadian Warplane Heritage Museum,
then leisurely two legs thru Port Huron MI (customs) to OSH.
Alternative to Burlington (CZBA) would be London ON (CYXU) where two Euros
are
building and another fine EAA chapter exists. There are a number of JUL/AUG
events which you might consider along the way.
Just a thought
Happy Landings
