    I agree with Stephen, it’s going to take some jigging to get the brackets lined up so the seats work smoothly.

    Smoothly!?!?! They're supposed to work smoothly?
    That seat track design was a total fail in my opinion. The rest of it... I like.

    I have been mostly focused on the trim lately and getting it dialed in. I spent about an hour cleaning the grese off the jack screw. Now on to the forward pully we opened the holes in the tab and will install the bushings to help with grinding the pin.20210421_082648.jpeg

    you might check your aerolons to see that the counter weights are in there---- (yoke rotating to one side when let go of---)

    That cable chafing a fuel line ????? That is exactly the type of thing that is supposed to be caught on annual. I have found lots of those cable vs. something when helping with annuals and pre buy inspections. Perhaps you might ask your self is your inspector is as good as he should be ....... that could have killed you on the next flight------

    The ailerons do not have counter weights on the Short Wings.

    Oooooh GOOD! I got a little worried there - I was pretty certain I did not have counter weights on mine!
