Aircraft don't need brakes to fly :)<br>

Thanks! Yep, I was a bit surprised at the simplicity (and, frankly, the<br>
flimsiness) of this rudder system. It's a bit unnerving to see that it<br>
would only take the failure of a single bolt to disable one of the<br>
brakes.... =O<br>
<br>
I think it took me all of 45 minutes to actually align and mount the<br>
pedals into my custom frame.<br>
<br>
Today I flew a Cessna 150 and I had a peek behind the pedals after<br>
parking...sure enough, it appears to be exactly the same setup. There was<br>
the little bolt and nut assembly to secure the pedal to its attachment<br>
shaft, and the mounting angles and dimensions of the pedals appear to be<br>
the same (though I am guessing the two sets of pedals are closer together<br>
on the 150 vs the 172RG that my pedals came from).<br>
