Subject: Re: RV10-List: control cables

California push-pull is a Cablecraft assembler.  The cables I spec'd 
previously were $60 to $70 each 2 years ago.  I believe the ones I 
ordered are rated to a higher temp than the Vans supplied cables, i.e. 
to 350F.  The marine cables seem to have more stainless than we probably 
need for aircraft.
