RV9A safety gust lock:
Ok was looking for a better way to lock my surfaces on my RV9A. That wire I have on the rudder just didn?t cut it on a windy day. Usually there isn?t enough wind to move my elevator. To my amazement the elevator was up! Dang on the ramp was it another plane or wind or both. Made mention to another 9er A guy there he said being close to Mt Hood hard telling but said he bought a Gust Lock brace from Anti-Splat website and now every surface is STILL. I order one and love it! That guy was right, you put it between the rudder pedals and stick and lock it into place. You?ll have to make the early adjustment for your plane but once done walla! Tang why didn?t I think of that. You can forget taking it out and it folds to about a foot and don?t think it weighs anymore than two pounds. Well built if I might aid. Nice job Anti-splat! and thanks.
