Semi-Trailer Dolly questions...

One of my ideas that I'm floating around for carrying the Ferret or
Humber is to use a 12 to or so type low boy semi-trailer (single or
dual axle) towed behind the 5 Ton with a Dolly type adaptor.
Naturally, one is better off with the dolly feeding air to the back
brakes on the semi-trailer as well as its own brakes.

What are the major issues with such a set up? Clearly I'm looking at
a class A drivers license if/when I set this up. What are the loading
issues? Backing is impossible as I understand it.
