Hi! James,
You have had a close shave with leaking fuel , and you would do the Europa
Club group a favour to publish the issue of rudder cable guidance. Such
issues can be anticipated during the build process. The cables can wander
and flap on the floor during the process of operating the rudder when
flying, all noises to distract your attention from controlling the aircraft
.
During the build It is quite simple to insert short lengths of plastic
tubing wherever there is a slight direction change of the cables between the
firewall and the rudder destination ( and passing fuel pipes as in your case
) during the build process and a redux fix of the tubing to the fuselage
floor , it also stops the noise of cables flapping about , particularly in
the restricted area through the tunnel and also when they pass by the "H"
section tailplane balance weight restraint structure and alignment through
the rear bulkhead.
There is no criticism intended with this message but it is intended for the
benefit of builders following.
Best regards
Bob Harrison Retired Ex G-PTAG.
