I much prefer the setup that most tandem seat aircraft use which is a rod linkage between the throttle levers and a cable from the front lever to the carb. The attached pic is of a J3 Cub. Using proper construction procedures I feel the risk of a disconnect as you describe is minimal. Plus trying to manipulate a broken cable as suggested and fly the plane is going to be difficult at best. I'd rather fly to a suitable airport/field, set up for an approach and kill the engine by shutting the fuel off once the landing is assured. YMMV.... -------- Todd Stovall aka "Auburntsts" on EAA and VAF RV-10 N728TT -- Flying Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=493800#493800 Attachments: http://forums.matronics.com//files/a9a05907_b207_43f8_a896_2f5320da3141_jpeg_113.jpg ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 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.
