but I’m still looking for someone doing this on regular bases.
Now you’ve found one 
I can name quite a number of other Europa owners doing it any time they go flying. PM me if interested 
I was referring to RV12 owners storing the aircraft in a trailer
No doubt, one of Europa’s unique selling points are the folding wings

In fact the wings are not foldable but can be taken completely off (no wingtanks btw). With a rigging aid I can rig the Europa single hand in 15 minutes easily as it’s designed from scratch for that task. I’d even say that it is essential to do that on a regular basis for ease of operation out of a trailer.
But I don’t want to hijack Snoopy’s thread…
Congratulations Snoopy on your purchase (from another Savannah pilot!)
Well that’s not what I’d actually call a garden shed (or garden mower). This is a comfortable and economic airplane, no matter what others keep saying. Congratulations!
I did some nice touring in microlights, mainly Tecnam P92 and P96, the planes that run my parents in the flight school. A Savannah is more or less somewhat similar in performance I think. Never flown one so far.
Congratulations Snoopy! In the southern alps it looks like it will be perfect plane for the scenic-but-short runways. Lots of photos please
Congratulations that’s awesome! Do you have a panel pic? I’m hoping for it to radiate the same happy mood as the entire plane
Congrats Snoopy, good choice. Very popular aircraft here too for its sturdiness. I have some hours on one owned by a friend here and, talking about bush flying, fondly remember flying from his own field and getting used to the approach procedure; first a very slow low pass over the field to scare away the sheep, and then make a short pattern to land before these not too intelligent animals are back grazing.. Hard to do that in any other plane, even less so at a field length of 250m.
Congrats on that. Have fun and at a low cost!
Good stuff @Snoopy!
I recall one of those French proverbs used when I was doing some rally driving last century (…): peu importe la monture pourvu qu’on aie l’ivresse or doesn’t matter what you ride as long as you get intoxicated
Enjoy!
