				Members,
       Today while  turning hard to the right, the nose wheel locked up in the full right turn  position along with the rudder.  I would like to know if this has happened  to anyone else flying a Rans S-6S Coyote II.  I contacted the previous  owner and was told that one time during flight a spring in the rudder system  turned the wrong was and caused the rudder to want to stay either in a left or  right position and the pilot had a hell of a time getting it to brake loose so  he could make a safe landing.  I would very much like to know if any owner  of one of these aircraft has ever had an experience as I have described and if  so what caused it and what was the fix.
