Your ailerons failed?

Now not only are you a prolific poster, but a true aviation hero? WOW!

Someone cut the cable on your Tomahawk?

Captainsmiffy, MU3001A and finfly….We have a true aviation hero here! Stand aside!

I can only recall I think two aircraft that had multiple hydraulic failures, with partial loss or total loss of most flight controls, one crashed just near Old Saigon (C-5) and the other landed at SFO (PAA B-747.)

Yip, I know it is off the subject, but we have a hero here!
@ mustangsally

I find your post pathetic.

There are many ways ailerons can get stuck. I don´t know what made you bashing the original poster for sharing his experience.

I had the ailerons of a Pitts stuck during aerobatics, caused by a ballpen somebody lost in the plane. I was able to brake the pen by a lot of force but if it havn´t been a plastic pen I would have been dead.

You have no reason not to believe what protectthehornet was saying.
Do you need that for your Ego ?
