Look closely!

Look closely!

I found this frayed cable while inspecting my wing.... after it was used as a demo trike for the 16hr repairman class. This cable is the rear kingpost cable for an iXess15, and this fray was on the bottom side of the securing clamp. Impossible to see unless you take it all apart. We all missed it, and looks to me like it could lead to imminent failure of some type. 

Look it all over carefully and Fly safe my friends

    Rock's comment reminded me of this find about a year and a half ago...
