I do have the tensiometer. Send me an address and I will mail it to you, just 
pay the shipping both ways.

Subject: [ercoupe-tech] Elevator cable tension

  



Is the device for checking elevator cable tension still available for loan/rent 
or whatever? My IA and I are deep into annual inspection and it is pretty 
obvious that both elevator and rudder cables are too slack.
The IA's tension meter only goes to 70lbs (I think that's what he said).

Looks like another LONG owner assisted annual for me, but so far, nothing too 
expensive looking. We are finding several loose rivets on the belly skin and a 
couple of short cracks in the skin near the wing root. Spars look good. Off to 
spend another painful day wadded up under the panel with my feet hanging out 
the window..........
