Remade My First Airplane Cable

July 19, 2012 Art Zemon

(When last we visited with our intrepid airplane builder, he was thoroughly disgusted because his first airplane cables were useless. A bit of a contest ensued in which several of avid readers tried to name the error of Art’s ways and John Struhar succeeded. Tonight, we return to Art in his combination sauna and airplane factory just in time to hear him shout…)

Voila!

I have remade my first airplane cable for my Bede BD-4C and this time it’s right! Since the previous cables cannot be used in an airplane (at least not in my airplane), I think I am justified in claiming that they are not actually  airplane cables. Tonight’s cable is an airplane cable, ready to be installed. Here are photos with a bad cable (“Bad, bad cable!”) and a good cable. I’ll bet you can tell which is which. Click on either photo to see a larger version.
