I think you hit the nail on the head. He is going to have an incredible home observatory.
I'm glad Mike is the one who wants to campaign this telescope! A 70-inch telescope is incredible, but to make it transportable simply boggles the mind.
If the technical hurdles of transportation can be overcome, Mike is the guy to figure it out.
If not, he'll have one heckuva home observatory down in Delta.

I would also think the optics should not be hauled on the trailer, should be hauled in the truck bed. Something with shock absorbers.
