Does anyone have experience with a horizontal stab being loose on an L-23? The elevator auto-hookups have large pins, but it seems like there's no way to really tighten anything: https://www.screencast.com/t/iiOd0TSi8zpX Our L-23 would not go together with the pins looking like that. With everything shiny clean and well greased, it is a real chore to wiggle the elevator drive home. There is no play, anywhere, and certainly none that could be noticed from the cockpit. I think I'd go have a very close look at that elevator and how assembled..... best, Evan Ludeman That was a "stock photo" I found from an assembly manual, but good to know. |
