Measure the height of the prop when you have a single blade pointing up. I
think you'll find that, when on the trailer, it is 10" higher than the tail and
thus becomes the critical height when putting the aircraft into a garage.
That's what Europa told me many years ago when I first enquired if the plane
would fit into my garage.
