COCKPIT
•
Inspect the aft face of the firewall for corrosion, deformation or cracks, especially
around fasteners.
•
Inspect the welded rudder pedal assemblies for cracks / damage, smooth movement
with no heavy resistance, etc.
•
Test the operation of the brake pedals. With constant pressure they should feel firm
and not spongy. Without pressure, each brake pedal must automatically return to the
original position. Check for hydraulic fluid leaks.
•
Actuate the control stick forward and aft and left and right. Operation must be
smooth from stop to stop. Verify freedom of movement of the pulleys and confirm
that they turn smoothly and without lateral play. With the control stick pulled back the
trailing edge of the stabilator must be up.
•
Run a rag along the control cables to check for frays or broken strands that will snag
the cloth. The stabilator cables must be aligned with the corresponding pulley and
free from physical interference. Confirm that the locking clips on the tensioner
barrels are installed and secure.
•
Hold either control stick stationary and gently wiggle each push/pull rod; there must
not be free play or loose parts. Check the rod-end jam nuts for proper torque and
check the security of the rod-end connection fasteners.
•
Make sure the stabilator
contacts its up and
down stops before the
WD-1210 Control
Column contacts it’s up
and down stops. If not,
loosen and tighten the
stabilator cable
tensioner barrels an
equal and opposite
amount until the travel
is full and correct. The
control column stops
must limit excessive
forward and aft
pressure. The bellcrank
stops must limit the left
and right control stick
motion. See
Figure 5
.
