Letter #18
Subject:
Preflight Inspection of Rudder Cables
To:
All KITFOX Owners
From:
Denney Aerocraft Company
A
KITFOX builder reports that during the second annual inspection of his
aircraft he discovered a frayed rudder cable. His aircraft has about 300
hours total time.
The
cable had worn through the plastic bushing and rubbed on the steel rudder
cable guide under the seat.
A
broken rudder cable and subsequent loss of rudder control could have very
serious consequences.
We
recommend that each KITFOX owner include as part of his
preflight inspection a very thorough examination of the rudder cables.
