Hi Donald,
Thank you very much for the specifics. I=92ll have a closer look at my
setup and see if it effects me too. Hope the paperwork goes well. Do you
have any completed photos for us??
Regards
Tony Renshaw

stick fully back, and listening for any labouring.

shortening the clevis/fork ends. I therefore had to do the remedial work
with the top on and was working single handed through the fuselage
access holes. Not a very easy task to undertake. As Bud said there is
not a big amount to be removed from the clevis/fork ends, just enought
to ensure you get no binding between the belcrank and the TS05 push rod
when tailplane and trim tab is in the configuration as described above.

appreciate knowing this, so I am thankful Bob brought it up. I have the
top still off so its ideal I overcome these issues now.

about 1/8 off each clevis on the pitch mechanism to allow the trim bar

response was that he had removed =BC=94 but when I questioned him
further he started to apply some engineering reason to the issue and
suggested that we probably both removed 1/8=94 from each clevice to
ensure there was adequate thread purchase left on both clevices. Which
is the principle I would apply , the only thing better is to remove it
---From one and check the operational clearance as to whether it is
necessary to do the other too.
