Subject: Pietenpol-List: Cessna's & Assholes (control cables)Just remember that everyone has one, just like opinions.A joke I once heard, but very true.I owned a 1938 Aeronca, best I can remember it had 1/8 cables.But I have flow ultralights with 1/16 cables, that fly about as fast as a Pietenpol.Just remember these birds are Experimental, which means you can do just about anything you want or trust to do.I would tend to use 1/8 on my bird, the idea being it is better to have it and not need it than need it and not have it.Dan________________________________________________________________________________
