What, no guesses, ya'll are no fun!!!
It is gear jacks from https://www.randomheli.com/default.asp ….
They are great helped my buddy install a few of them really nicely done and sturdy. But we ran into one problem. Before he had small D rings mounted on the floor with bungee cords. But now with new supports it has become difficult to get the planes in and out of the trailer because they stand up and are in the way. With the D rings they just lay flat and you could just pull the plane in and out. Let know what you think.

These are going to be in the rear of the trailer on trays that pull out. I have had that issue with eye bolts and the like also tried hinges that fold flat but it seems that no matter what I use it almost always gets in the way, sorta. The sorta being the oddball in the bunch, the Big Pitts on a dolly. So I have decided that being as the big Pitts is very seldom flown it will come out and be stored in the shop. I will put two sliding shelves in the rear that will house four planes. Those four will be very accessible and I will install fold flat hinges in the floor in the front for the dolly. If I want to take the big Pitts out it will be much easier to load it than unload four others. This will also make room to mount the four wing bags to the wall. If everything works out like I plan it should be much easier to access any plane and haul the gear in the trailer as well. As soon as I can locate some garage door railing I will get it all built and installed. And of course I will post pics of it.
