Many gliders and some Europas have a 'one man (woman)' rigging aid. It consists
of a wing dolly that can be rotated between vertical and horizontal, while you
handle the wing root. I digest you look initially on glider web sites.

the possibilities of removing and attaching the wings single handed. I have
seen in the manual that this can be done by two people. However, my requirement
is for this to be done single handed, as hangar space is expensive.

to inserting in the hangar to remove the wings. Is there any equipment available
which enables this to be done single handed with an Europa? In that case
I reckon that the equipment will be bound at the home base so removing and
reattaching wings will not be possible at other airfields.
