Just been doing my annual condition inspection on my RV9A with a O-320-D2A. On Wednesday we checked all the cable operations and everything was super smooth, the very next day when the LAA Inspector was signing everything off the throttle was VERY stiff to operate. We have checked everything for any cable kinks or other obvious issues and can find none. Even with the friction nut backed right off its the same.
This has happened once before about 8 months ago, and the next day it was fine again. The cables are McFarlane one and the aircraft has flown just 100 Hours since completion 2 years ago.
If any of the Vans collective genius minds have any thoughts then please let me know as at the moment we are baffled.
Thanks in advance
