Brief Description:  Elevator Control Cables Safety-Wired

Lastly, I safety-wired the elevator turnbuckles. These are a little trickier than the rudder and I tweaked the tension to ensure desired stick positions (fore and aft) and full deflections could be simultaneously achieved. Once set in place, I performed a double-wrapped (spiral) safety wire technique to both turnbuckles.

Flight controls complete.
