HOMEMADE GUST LOCKS

Constructed to prevent control surface movement and to avoid using aircraft yoke as a tiedown, which has been suspected to be one of the reasons for aileron link damage

Constructed from 1x6 treated pine, painted orange so I won't forget them during preflight.

5" eybolts for rudder and elevator, 8" eybolts for ailerons, covered with shrink tubing to protect the aircraft surfaces.

Added "Remove before flight" flags to add a further reminder.

Mounted on ailerons in counterweight gap.

Mounted on elevator in outer hinge gap over counterweight

Mounted on Rudder in center hinge gap

Realizing your dreams is a matter of making dreams real.
