Reviving an old thread....
I recently had a chance to look inside the tail of three different 3-window C180s with float kits.
Spotted the rudder centering spring apparatus in back, in fact one of them (incorrectly) had it still hooked up.
(all three airplanes were on wheels).
But I've never seen this aileron/rudder interconnect.
I was gonna ask where it's located but Bat saved me the trouble.
In case I don't get the chance to look inside them again, or if they're too old to have them,
can someone post a photo or maybe a scan / photo of the apparatus from their IPC?
