Sounds like a common error; my Traveler had both the elevator and aileron

cable tension at twice the spec value.  (Rudder cable tension was OK but,

since springs limit the tension, it can't get set grossly wrong.)

I just finished an annual on a Tiger that had the elevator cable tension set

way to high.  I think they adjusted it by feel, comparing it to the aileron

cables possibly.

 I'm doing an annual on a Tiger that had the braces for the horizontal

 replaced last year.  The shop that did it is one of the best.  However,

 the cable tension to the elevator was over 90 lbs (off the scale on my

 tensioner).
