Cees,

I do understand how to install it, I wasn't requesting any detailed explanations. Your diagrams are nice but quite unnecessary. That system is considerably more complicated than simply passing the elevator assembly through the stab opening - no need to open up the glass fuse rear. In some cases, the stab is no where close to the rudder hinge line so the system you illustrate doesn't really work as a general method. One doesn't want to split the fuse rear just to pass a control horn.

My point still stands though. Any maintenance that needs to be given is a nil option. And yes, one does have access to car gear boxes - I've pulled one off, fixed it and reinstalled one myself.

I'll keep my linkages maintenable if that's alright.

David.
