My fuselage arrived today, and I was woefully under-prepared. I had seen in the forums that the LTL carriers cannot unload the large crates such as this. Despite knowing that, I had been preoccupied with other things and had done nothing in terms of arranging equipment or friends to help. When the day came, and ABF asked if I could unload… I had to scramble. Luckily, the county has a Bobcat with a forklift attachment at the airport and was able to help me out. I was also luck that Mike and Steve were there to help me.
Here is the initial offload. 
Its a huge crate!
Proud father!
First glimpse inside the crate. 
I was not initially planning to unpack or even open the crate today, but Steve and Mike were just as eager as I was, and with the helping hands available there was no reason not to!
By the end of the day we had it neatly tucked back in the rear of the hangar where I was able to climb in and make airplane noises!
