Not a very active group, but here's a question about miniLAK ailerons...

[Phil Rose]

Ladies & Gents,

The aileron on S/N 013 had a slight squeak on the left hinge during actuation from the day we bought it, and it's only getting quite a bit worse and louder and now there is a squeak on the right aileron hinge during aileron actuation.  Needless to say, there are quite a few aileron movements during a long flight.  Does anybody else have this problem?  If so, what did you find?  Obviously, it requires opening, inspection, & grease.  We're just wondering to what extent other owners may have had a similar problem.

The good news:  not a lot of posts on this group--sooooo...either not a lot of people subscribing or maybe just not too many problems with the miniLAK:)

Happy Flying!

Cheers!  Phil R. in Seattle

Phil,

I've had others, but not this issue!
