Graeme, Have you measured the actual range of movement from the neutral
position of the tailplane? The reqired range is set out in the build
manual. If you are not getting the full range it certainly needs sorting
before anyy more flying

currently musing on it while on holiday so no access for investigation till I
am back, I did do some brief investigating though.

| Subject: | North Coates this weekend! |
Hi, just a quick reminder for anyone interested that this weekend (15th/ 16th July)
is our North Coates "Wings and Wheels" fly-in that David kindly included
in the Europa Flyer and Club events listing page.
If the weather is anything like, then it's a nice and enjoyable event to go along
to, it's a very friendly club and an airfield with an interesting heritage.
We have a "Heritage room" with exhibits and memorabilia of the airfield over
the years - the earliest recorded aircraft movement was in 1916!
No landing fees and excellent burgers from the BBQ for just 3! Routing up the
east coast will give you a lovely view of the Lincolnshire coastline and you will
certainly see hundreds of seals on the shoreline in the Donna Nook area.
The Donna Nook range will be closed (its weekday only) so no problems there. The
airfield is easy - a nice 760 M grass runway, 23/05 with air-ground radio on
120.15.
The event is also being supported by the International Auster Club so if you like
looking at those then this might be the place to come......! There will be
Car & Motorcycle clubs displaying as well as other organisations. A BBMF Hurricane
flypast is scheduled for the Sunday and if we are lucky the Search &a Rescue
helicopter based at Humberside sometimes does a "practice" winch pick up
during these weekends....!
Sadly for me, despite requesting the weekend off, I have to go to work for all
of it so won't be around. The club secretary and one of the main stalwarts of
all our events (Brian) has assured me that a warm welcome will be made to everyone
attending. So, fingers crossed for the weather and to anyone interested
in going, have a great time!
Jon
