I grabbed mine with an engine hoist (by the engine mount) in front, and with
a modified "A" frame in  back.  (A well padded sling in front of the tail
feathers.)

Raise it enough so the wing will clear the ground -- get 4 stout friends.

I cut special length legs for saw horses, and used plenty of padding.

** be careful with the landing gear -- If you let it fall "closed" it can do
serious damage.
** be careful when you turn the plane right side up -- it will try to get
away from you.
