Thanks guys, that was kind of my idea, but when I saw the picture with the
bracket I had to ask the question. Just another good example of how this
forum works.
BTW...Didn't mean to raise such a s..t storm guys, was not my intention.
Thanks
Steve

Nev has told you already, this is a decided NONO. I always stabilize, (which
the mono does need) using a luggage strap from low down on the trailer over
the fuselage just in front of the windscreen. A piece of soft carpet under
the strap will prevent marking the paint.
surfboard shops sell suitable straps which are ideal, you might need two
joined together to get the required length.
