A transportation system 100 is disclosed for transporting a rotor blade 16 having a first end and a second end defining a rotor blade length. The transportation system 100 includes a truck 110 configured to transport the rotor blade 16, the truck 110 including a bed 114 having a forward end and a distal end defining a bed length 120. The transportation system 100 further includes a first fixture 200 configured on the bed 114, the first fixture 200 comprising a generally arcuate guide member and a support frame 154 slidable along the guide member, the support frame 154 configured to support the rotor blade 16. The transportation system 100 further includes a second fixture 202 configured on the bed 114 for one of slidable support or rotatable support of the rotor blade 16.
