TESTIMONIALS ***
"I have
noticed that over the years planes that over the years (with
3/4 inch control wheel shafts) that the owners use the seat
belts the shaft becomes bent due to the seat belt pulling
down on the shaft. This is not a good situation because not
only does it bent the shafts it puts a great load on the
column universal joint. I would recommend you consider the
control lock from Airplanethings. They are inexpensive and
do a great job". Dick Russ
"The best
control lock I have found is the the one from Airplane
Things.
It holds the controls in the proper position and against the
stops to prevent damage in high winds. It also prevents
water from collecting in the stab". Bob Bomar
"Bill and
Diane Airplane Things have the best (sunglasses) there is.
Readers, yes, and the tint is darker at the top and light at
the bottom so you can read charts better. Many different
strengths and three styles to choose from". Dave Wheeler
"I have an Airplane
Things control lock. I sometimes park my plane on a very
windy ramp for a week or two at a time. The control lock
works great." JP, AZ
"I will second
Airplane Things control lock. It keeps the stab in the
perfect position to protect it from damage. Much better than
the seat belts pulling on the control column. It looks good
and cannot be missed on startup. And the owners are very
nice people" Bob B.
"I absolutely love
Bill and Diane's reader sun glasses. I am not a pilot, but
when flying with Dave, I can read the chart and look outside
and both are clear. They work great in the car too" Janis W,
WA
"I have their
control lock and love it as well. It's portable, light
weight, and practical. I keep it in the seat back" Ken D, WA
"I have their reader
sunglasses. They are great for flying. I found the tint too
dark in the first pair; I called, sent them back and got a
replacement pair with a lighter tint - no charge, no hassle.
I have been using them ever since." Joe, IL
"I have their reader sunglasses and think the are the
greatest thing since sliced bread!!! Would definitely buy
again. Had the control saver in a previous Cherokee. It is a
very simple, yet excellent solution for keeping the control
surfaces in the proper position while being easy to deploy.
The only reason I don't have a control saver in my current
aircraft is because it has a factory gust lock." Joe Y.,
Olathe, KS
