Had a nice little pole round in my Auster j5g this morning , going know where special just a flight for the hell of it after a wet runway lay off, thought I would do a few turns just for a bit of practice and fun, one steep turn to the right followed by turn to the left and head home on rolling into left turn it went twang ! " THE AILERON CABLE" :shock: it was hanging limp in the cockpit off the controll assembly ,after the initial bowel evacuation I got the wings back level then all turns made with the rudder , flew fast approach and landing to keep the trailing aileron up , any one else tried flying on one ? I would recommend it for a instant colonic irrigation !
