Europa-List: Container contingency

As part of contingency preparation for a prospective trip I would like to check
the feasibility of fitting a Europa XS Mono in a 20 container. The 20 container
is attractive, in that the Europa would just fit in as a complete aircraft
with wings detached. Assume the availability of a fuselage cradle, strapping and
air bags to fill the remaining void.

Perhaps someone is currently using a 20 container as a hanger? 
The key point appears to be the difference between length of the aircraft 
fuselage
and the available internal length of the container. The remainder is 50mm
not much margin for error!  On paper it should work? But how does the 
prospective
solution look in the real world?

Diagram attached.

Regards


Bob
