No more ca hinges.
Flap,
I was luckier than you I got to hear the elevator flutter and could feel my stik not turning like it should and got it on the ground. This is the second instance of ca hinge failure that I have seen. So I will never use anything bit pinned hinges again. But I have learned something from my mishap, whether ca hinge or pinned I pull on each of them before I fly. Paranoid I guess. How is the repairs going, hope to see you this weekend but the weather looks like crap.
Later
Jimmy
