Just to clear up the times - it actually arrived Monday night and from the news reports, it started its journey in Switzerland (another competitor had a spare mast there so they had to get it to FRA). They showed it being hand carried out and loaded onto a long truck. It looked like it sat on top of the other freight containers. Quite a logistical task and a hefty bill as well (about $1m) - it will be worth it it they win!
