A word of warning

[FoxDB 17]

I was preparing for a flight this morning and checked the brakes when the left rudder cable broke. This was not readily visible at preflight. I don't like the way the cable was crimped so tightly around the disc. I plan to put a stainless thimble around the disc to prevent such a tight bend of the cable.

Lucky! Lucky! I've never seen that kind of break in normal use.

Wow! I think I'm going to check those attachments before my next flight.
