Having my out-of-town annual at Tennessee Aircraft Services in Jackson TN (Pau New's shop). They've found an airworthiness issue with the outer hinge on the left elevator (P/N O432001-51 as per the shop). The holes in the U shaped component of the elevator hinge (which accepts an insert from the horizontal stabilizer) have become enlarged and at some time in the past someone had inserted a bushing which further enlarged the holes. Shop options are a send-out to Airframe Components by Williams in Indiana for tear down/replacement (pricey!!!) or find a replacement via the 150/152 resource. In the meantime, I'm stuck.
