Aileron and Flap Control Cable lengths for the Highlander

Post by fiferphil »

Anyone know what the initial cut for the aileron and flap control cables  should be? :?  ( I know --  the book sez 11.5' for the down cable and 15.5' for the up cable and  some other cable cut in half for the flaps, etc, etc) Are these measurements true for the Highlander as well as the Excape-aid? (Escapade for those who lack a sense of humor) :lol:

Phil, we cut those cables about 15 to 16 feet at the factory and there is usually a couple of feet that gets cut off when we do the rigging to the turn buckles.  Jak
