Brief Description:  Manual aileron trim control

A lot of little things in the way of finishing up the controls under the fwd seat floors, including the manual trim for the ailerons. This is a pretty basic lever that attaches two springs to the aileron contols. By moving the lever, pring pressure is increased on one side and reduced on the other. A small UHM block applies friction onn the lever.

The length of the vertical tube puts the lever too high (IMHO) and makes it likely to snag on clothes or sleeves. I determined to shorten it. (See next entry and pics)

The last task involves attachment of safety wire between the lever under the floor and the springs, which will be done later.

The right fwd seat floor requires a hole for the vertical tube to pass through. That is shown in the next entry, too.
