I read an article about the importance of keeeping your
control mechanisms lubricated That's part of the 100 hour maintenance for PA28s. For sure. I keep the yoke shafts lubricated (with spray-on silicone spray) every few flights. It makes an amazing difference. -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination"

I keep the yoke shafts lubricated (with spray-on silicone spray) every few flights. Silicone seems like a more appropriate lubricant than engine oil, but that is what is specified by Piper. It makes an amazing difference. I've found that keeping the shafts lubricated reduces PIOs and ballooning. It's often overlooked; I've never had an instructor mention it.
