I have always thought the pattern engine (OS 61 RF) on this plane wasn't the correct choice. Maybe a short stroke or the OS VF. Anyway the engine is frozen and pump may or may not be any good.

The rudder control arm failed (probably soon after it was built) so i decided to finally expose the problem. Thin razor saw and away i went. Not bad actually, it should patch just fine.

Not good, brass to steel solder joint. I cleaned it up a bit while I think about how to repair.
