Here is the way I did mine. I copied the idea from someone's plane I saw in Brodhead
back in 1996. I cannot remember who's plane it was. Mine are installed
a little high up. I think an inch or two lower would be ideal. Just an 1/8 in.
cable attached to the rear cabanes. I used avaition Eye bolts through the cabanes.
Very easy to do. This is the best pic I can find at the moment but you
get the idea. Yes I would do it the same way again.

Wow, Scott- lots of interesting things to see on your airplane! First of all,
I'm surprised that there are no photos of your plane on Westcoastpiet, unless
I'm not looking in the right place. We've got to get on Chris Tracy to get him
to upload some pictures! So it's obvious that you have the elevator control
cables routed externally like Dick Navratil's airplane, but the 'walking beam'
on your airplane is down on the bottom longerons where Dick's is pretty much
at the midline of the tail. From the picture it appears that the upper elevator
cable has to make a very sharp angle over the leading edge of the horizontal
stabilizer to get to the top of the elevator horn. Is that just the camera
angle fooling my eyes?
Next question is, of course, what the black kickstand-looking thing is at the lower
port side of the fuselage. Some type of step for getting in and out of the
cockpits?
Then there is the vane-type airspeed indicator. Do you also have a conventional
ASI? I don't see a pitot tube.
Like I say, there are a lot of interesting things to see in that photo!
