ASG29 rudder lock
Field expedient overnight rudder lock: Run a strip of wing tape down BOTH sides of the rudder hinge line.
Works as well as any mechanical rudder lock I've seen or used (stops ALL rudder movement), does not damage the finish, easy to install and remove, materials always at hand (use some tape off a wing root if needed). Field tested at wonderful Moriarty, where as we all know the wind doesn't blow, it sucks! Kirk 66

ASG29 rudder lock
Oh, come on now, Kirk... It's only forecast to gust up to 65 mph today
(currently 28G37 mph according to Wunderground, 27024G32 according to AWOS)... Seems like springtime is upon us!
