Primary Flight Control Failure??

My information has Nanchang and Yak's with 95% exchangeable parts and that there have been primary flight control failures in the recent past in these aircraft types.

My questions is in this are:

1. Was this a primary control failure??

2. Was this similar to the un-investigated fatal crash of a Nanchang at Moruya??

3. Are there any other failures in the past that have occurred in either Yak's or Nanchang's??

4. What other accidents have not been investigated??

5. What is the complicity in this of Warbirds??

6. Have there been any AD's issued??? [particularly regarding inspections of primary flight controls]??

Answers please

Please don't let the chance to have a really good look at what has happened and the relationship to other similar fatal's or near fatal's in these types of aircraft go by this opportunity to explore all the facts.
