If (God forbid) your throttle cable came loose from the throttle handle in the rear, what would you be able to do to control the throttle? Not easily, but I think that you stand a chance of being able to move the throttle cable enough while loose to make an emergency landing. If it disconnects from the throttle in the front seat, what you can you do about it from the rear? Not a blessed thing. At least that is my reasoning for attaching the cable directly to the rear throttle. YMMV. -------- Semper Fi, Terry Hand Athens, GA Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=493788#493788 ________________________________ Message 2 _____________________________________ Time: 08:32:45 PM PST US Subject: Pietenpol-List: Re: throttle setup From: "taildrags" Well now Terry, that makes a heck of a lot of sense! It also makes it possible to disconnect (or remove) the throttle from the front cockpit along with the stick, if they are constructed to be removed, without disturbing the pilot's operation of the throttle. This is sometimes useful when you are giving rides and don't want anyone working the controls who shouldn't be, and also removes some obstacles that passengers sometimes have to work around while climbing in and out. -------- Oscar Zuniga Medford, OR Air Camper NX41CC "Scout" A75 power, 72x36 Culver prop Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=493798#493798 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Other Matronics Email List Services ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Post A New Message pietenpol-list@matronics.com UN/SUBSCRIBE http://www.matronics.com/subscription List FAQ http://www.matronics.com/FAQ/Pietenpol-List.htm Web Forum Interface To Lists http://forums.matronics.com Matronics List Wiki http://wiki.matronics.com Full Archive Search Engine http://www.matronics.com/search 7-Day List Browse http://www.matronics.com/browse/pietenpol-list Browse Digests http://www.matronics.com/digest/pietenpol-list Browse Other Lists http://www.matronics.com/browse Live Online Chat! http://www.matronics.com/chat Archive Downloading http://www.matronics.com/archives Photo Share http://www.matronics.com/photoshare Other Email Lists http://www.matronics.com/emaillists Contributions http://www.matronics.com/contribution ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- These Email List Services are sponsored solely by Matronics and through the generous Contributions of its members.
