				I'm doing an annual on a Tiger that had the braces for the horizontal 
 replaced last year.  The shop that did it is one of the best.  However, 
 the cable tension to the elevator was over 90 lbs (off the scale on my 
 tensioner).
 
 Should I sue the last guy to work on this plane?  Or, do you think it 
 would be more contructive to correct the problem and let the shop know 
 what I found so that can correct the source of the mistake?
 
 Damn it, I'm calling my lawyer . . . .

				I just finished an annual on a Tiger that had the elevator cable tension set 
 way to high.  I think they adjusted it by feel, comparing it to the aileron 
 cables possibly.

				When I was rerigging the cables, I noticed that if I put the center 
 pulley on the cable tensioner on the pulley's axel, it read about 40 
 lbs.  My guess is whoever did it didn't know how to use the tensioner.
