RV-Archive.digest.vol-fg August 20, 1998 - August 25, 1998 Bill, the incident I recall reading about I believe happened Down Under. There was some evidence that the lower rear part of the fiberglass tail fairing (which are normally screwed down into one of the stringers) was not secured by screws and apparently when the elevator was full down, the bottom of the fairing somehow overlapped the top of the elevator. This then prevented the elevator from moving from a full nose down configuration. I noticed on my fairing that if you trimed the lower rear fairing sufficiently then the elevator can be below it and if the fairing did stick out from the side of the airframe sufficiently it could overhang the elevator and prevent it from returning to neutral position. I now have two screws on each side of the fuselage holding down the lower rear of the fairing.
